Local Law Enforcement
Around fifty automobiles have been smeared with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the German city of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by authorities.
Vehicles, walls and mailboxes were defaced, sometimes with Nazi symbols, they announced in a statement.
Police state they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday, when a individual discovered that a vehicle in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been marked with a reddish fluid.
The fluid had been drawn in the form of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Police then found many other marked cars and residential walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
These symbols are prohibited in Germany under legislation outlawing the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.
Law enforcement say initial examinations suggest the fluid was likely human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no indication as to where it came from; investigators are currently not informed of any physical harm in relation with the incident," they added.
Municipal representatives announced they were trying "to unravel the incident" and have requested to the community for tips.
A senior political figure stated the attack made him without words and needed to be solved promptly.
"This act affects the very heart of Hanau and reopens the pain of the far-right violent incident five years ago," he posted on social media, mentioning the killing of nine victims by a assailant targeting people of migrant background in 2020.
