Local Law Enforcement
Approximately fifty cars have been marked with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the German municipality of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, police confirm police.
Automobiles, walls and postal boxes were marked, in some cases with prohibited symbols, they announced in a statement.
Law enforcement report they were alerted late on Wednesday evening, when a resident discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been covered with a reddish-hued fluid.
The substance had been drawn in the form of a Nazi symbol, they reported.
Law enforcement then located numerous other marked vehicles and residential walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
Nazi symbols are banned in Germany under laws banning the visible presentation of symbols from the Nazi era.
Officials state initial examinations show the substance was most likely human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no indication as to its origin; officials are presently not informed of any harm in association with the occurrence," they stated.
Municipal representatives announced they were working "to solve the mystery" and have asked to the residents for details.
An important representative said the vandalism rendered him without words and required to be addressed promptly.
"This incident strikes at the core of Hanau and reopens the wounds of the extremist terrorist attack half a decade ago," he wrote on online, recalling the death of nine people by a gunman targeting residents of migrant background in 2020.
