Area Law Enforcement
Approximately 50 cars have been marked with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's municipality of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to law enforcement.
Automobiles, building surfaces and mailboxes were marked, in some cases with Nazi symbols, they reported in a statement.
Police report they were alerted in the late hours on Wednesday evening, when a individual observed that a car in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been marked with a reddish substance.
The fluid had been drawn in the shape of a Nazi symbol, they reported.
Law enforcement then located multiple other marked automobiles and residential walls in the nearby vicinity.
Nazi symbols are illegal in Germany under legislation outlawing the public exhibition of Nazi-era symbols.
Police state preliminary tests show the liquid was probably human bodily fluid.
"At present there remains no clue as to its source; officials are currently not informed of any injuries in association with the incident," they commented.
City officials announced they were trying "to resolve the mystery" and have appealed to the public for details.
A high-ranking official stated the incident made him speechless and had to be resolved rapidly.
"This event strikes at the center of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the far-right attack five years ago," he wrote on online, mentioning the murder of nine individuals by a shooter aiming at people of foreign heritage in 2020.
