Roughly fifty cars have been smeared with what appears to be human blood in the Germany's municipality of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to authorities.
Automobiles, exterior walls and postboxes were marked, in some cases with Nazi symbols, they stated in a official communication.
Law enforcement say they were contacted during the night on Wednesday evening, when a man noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been covered with a red-colored liquid.
The fluid had been placed in the shape of a Nazi symbol, they reported.
Officers then found multiple other vandalized automobiles and building exteriors in the adjacent neighborhood.
Swastikas are banned in Germany under laws outlawing the public exhibition of Nazi-era symbols.
Police state preliminary tests suggest the liquid was most likely human bodily fluid.
"At present there remains no lead as to where it came from; officials are currently not informed of any physical harm in relation with the event," they stated.
City officials announced they were trying "to resolve the mystery" and have appealed to the public for details.
A senior official commented the vandalism made him speechless and had to be solved promptly.
"This act strikes at the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the right-wing terrorist attack half a decade ago," he wrote on social media, recalling the murder of nine individuals by a gunman targeting individuals of immigrant origin in 2020.
