Approximately fifty cars have been marked with what appears to be human blood in the Germany's city of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by authorities.
Vehicles, exterior walls and mailboxes were marked, occasionally with swastikas, they stated in a official communication.
Police say they were alerted in the late hours on Wednesday night, when a resident discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been marked with a reddish-hued fluid.
The substance had been drawn in the pattern of a swastika, they added.
Officers then located multiple other vandalized automobiles and house walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
Nazi symbols are illegal in Germany under regulations banning the visible presentation of Nazi-era symbols.
Law enforcement say preliminary tests indicate the liquid was most likely blood from a person.
"At present there remains no lead as to its origin; investigators are not yet informed of any physical harm in connection with the incident," they stated.
Municipal representatives said they were attempting "to unravel the incident" and have requested to the community for tips.
A senior representative commented the vandalism rendered him stunned and needed to be solved quickly.
"This act strikes at the very heart of Hanau and reopens the trauma of the extremist terrorist attack in 2020," he wrote on a platform, referring to the killing of nine individuals by a assailant targeting individuals of immigrant origin in February 2020.
