Area Law Enforcement
Roughly fifty cars have been covered with what seems to be human blood in the German town of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.
Cars, building surfaces and mailboxes were vandalized, occasionally with swastikas, they stated in a official communication.
Officers say they were alerted in the late hours on Wednesday, when a man discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been covered with a reddish substance.
The fluid had been drawn in the pattern of a swastika, they reported.
Law enforcement then located multiple other marked automobiles and building exteriors in the nearby vicinity.
Swastikas are prohibited in Germany under legislation prohibiting the public exhibition of Nazi-era symbols.
Officials state early analysis indicate the substance was probably human blood.
"There is still no indication as to its origin; authorities are presently not aware of any injuries in relation with the occurrence," they stated.
Local authorities announced they were trying "to unravel the case" and have requested to the public for information.
A high-ranking political figure said the attack made him without words and needed to be solved rapidly.
"This incident strikes at the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the wounds of the far-right terrorist attack in 2020," he wrote on a platform, mentioning the killing of nine people by a assailant targeting people of migrant background in February 2020.
