Area Law Enforcement
Roughly fifty vehicles have been smeared with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the German city of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.
Automobiles, walls and postal boxes were marked, in some cases with prohibited symbols, they announced in a statement.
Police say they were contacted late on Wednesday, when a man noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been covered with a reddish fluid.
The substance had been drawn in the shape of a banned symbol, they reported.
Law enforcement then found numerous other smeared vehicles and house walls in the nearby vicinity.
Nazi symbols are banned in Germany under regulations banning the public display of Nazi-era symbols.
Police state early analysis indicate the liquid was likely human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no indication as to its origin; officials are presently not cognizant of any injuries in relation with the event," they commented.
Municipal representatives said they were working "to resolve the case" and have appealed to the residents for tips.
A senior political figure stated the vandalism made him stunned and needed to be resolved promptly.
"This act hits the core of Hanau and revives the wounds of the right-wing terrorist attack five years ago," he stated on online, referring to the murder of nine people by a gunman focusing on people of migrant background in February 2020.
