Local Police
Approximately 50 automobiles have been covered with what appears to be blood from a person in the German municipality of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by police.
Cars, walls and postboxes were defaced, sometimes with swastikas, they announced in a release.
Law enforcement report they were notified during the night on Wednesday night, when a resident observed that a vehicle in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been marked with a red-colored liquid.
The substance had been drawn in the form of a swastika, they added.
Law enforcement then discovered multiple other vandalized automobiles and building exteriors in the nearby vicinity.
Nazi symbols are prohibited in Germany under regulations outlawing the visible presentation of Nazi-era symbols.
Police report initial examinations indicate the liquid was likely blood from a person.
"There is still no clue as to where it came from; authorities are not yet informed of any harm in association with the event," they commented.
Local authorities announced they were working "to solve the mystery" and have appealed to the residents for tips.
An important official commented the incident made him without words and needed to be addressed rapidly.
