Police mentioned they were notified by a resident who discovered a automobile in Hanau covered with reddish fluid

Approximately fifty automobiles have been covered with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's municipality of Hanau near Frankfurt, police confirm law enforcement.

Vehicles, walls and mailboxes were defaced, in some cases with Nazi symbols, they announced in a release.

Law enforcement state they were contacted during the night on Wednesday, when a man discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been marked with a reddish-hued substance.

The liquid had been placed in the pattern of a banned symbol, they reported.

Officers then discovered multiple other marked automobiles and building exteriors in the nearby vicinity.

Nazi symbols are illegal in Germany under laws outlawing the visible presentation of symbols from the Nazi era.

Police state preliminary tests show the liquid was most likely human blood.

"Currently there is no lead as to where it came from; authorities are presently not informed of any injuries in relation with the occurrence," they stated.

Local authorities said they were trying "to resolve the incident" and have requested to the community for tips.

An important official said the vandalism left him stunned and required to be addressed rapidly.

"This event hits the center of Hanau and reopens the wounds of the extremist attack half a decade ago," he wrote on a platform, mentioning the murder of nine victims by a gunman targeting individuals of migrant background in 2020.
