Roughly fifty automobiles have been marked with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's municipality of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to authorities.
Vehicles, walls and mailboxes were marked, occasionally with swastikas, they announced in a release.
Officers say they were notified in the late hours on Wednesday evening, when a individual observed that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been smeared with a reddish-hued fluid.
The substance had been placed in the shape of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Law enforcement then found numerous other marked vehicles and residential walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under regulations outlawing the visible presentation of Nazi-era symbols.
Law enforcement say early analysis indicate the substance was most likely human blood.
"Currently there is no lead as to its source; officials are currently not cognizant of any harm in connection with the incident," they stated.
City officials stated they were working "to unravel the case" and have asked to the public for information.
A senior official stated the incident rendered him without words and required to be addressed rapidly.
"This incident strikes at the core of Hanau and reopens the pain of the far-right violent incident five years ago," he stated on a platform, mentioning the killing of nine people by a gunman focusing on residents of immigrant origin in five years prior.
