Local Law Enforcement
Roughly fifty automobiles have been covered with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's municipality of Hanau close to Frankfurt, according to police.
Automobiles, building surfaces and mailboxes were vandalized, occasionally with Nazi symbols, they reported in a statement.
Police state they were notified during the night on Wednesday evening, when a man noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been marked with a reddish substance.
The substance had been applied in the shape of a Nazi symbol, they added.
Law enforcement then discovered many other marked vehicles and residential walls in the surrounding area.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under legislation outlawing the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.
Police report preliminary tests indicate the substance was probably human bodily fluid.
"At present there remains no lead as to where it came from; investigators are presently not cognizant of any harm in connection with the event," they stated.
City officials stated they were trying "to resolve the incident" and have requested to the community for details.
A senior representative said the attack rendered him stunned and needed to be resolved quickly.
"This event hits the center of Hanau and reawakens the wounds of the far-right violent incident in 2020," he posted on online, recalling the killing of nine individuals by a gunman targeting people of immigrant origin in February 2020.
