Local Law Enforcement
Approximately fifty cars have been marked with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's city of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, according to authorities.
Automobiles, walls and mailboxes were marked, in some cases with Nazi symbols, they reported in a release.
Law enforcement say they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday, when a resident noticed that a car in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been covered with a reddish liquid.
The fluid had been applied in the shape of a banned symbol, they stated.
Officers then located many other marked vehicles and residential walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
These symbols are banned in Germany under regulations prohibiting the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.
Law enforcement say early analysis suggest the liquid was likely human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no lead as to where it came from; officials are presently not informed of any harm in association with the incident," they commented.
Municipal representatives stated they were working "to unravel the incident" and have requested to the public for tips.
A high-ranking representative stated the vandalism made him speechless and needed to be solved quickly.
"This act strikes at the center of Hanau and revives the pain of the extremist terrorist attack half a decade ago," he stated on online, mentioning the death of nine individuals by a gunman focusing on individuals of migrant background in February 2020.
