Approximately fifty cars have been smeared with what appears to be human blood in the Germany's city of Hanau near Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.
Automobiles, exterior walls and postboxes were marked, sometimes with prohibited symbols, they announced in a release.
Officers report they were contacted during the night on Wednesday, when a individual observed that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been covered with a red-colored liquid.
The fluid had been drawn in the shape of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Officers then discovered multiple other vandalized cars and residential walls in the surrounding area.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under legislation outlawing the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.
Law enforcement state preliminary tests suggest the liquid was likely blood from a person.
"Currently there is no indication as to where it came from; authorities are presently not aware of any injuries in relation with the event," they added.
Municipal representatives announced they were trying "to resolve the mystery" and have requested to the public for tips.
A high-ranking political figure said the incident rendered him without words and needed to be resolved promptly.
"This act affects the very heart of Hanau and revives the wounds of the far-right terrorist attack five years ago," he posted on a platform, recalling the murder of nine victims by a gunman focusing on people of foreign heritage in February 2020.
