Roughly fifty cars have been smeared with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's city of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to authorities.
Cars, exterior walls and postboxes were defaced, in some cases with prohibited symbols, they announced in a release.
Officers report they were notified in the late hours on Wednesday evening, when a resident observed that a automobile in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been marked with a reddish-hued liquid.
The liquid had been placed in the shape of a swastika, they reported.
Law enforcement then discovered numerous other vandalized cars and building exteriors in the surrounding area.
These symbols are banned in Germany under legislation outlawing the public display of Nazi symbols.
Officials report early analysis suggest the liquid was probably human bodily fluid.
"At present there remains no lead as to its origin; investigators are not yet cognizant of any harm in connection with the event," they added.
Municipal representatives said they were working "to unravel the case" and have requested to the community for information.
An important political figure stated the vandalism made him speechless and needed to be solved rapidly.
"This incident strikes at the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the trauma of the far-right violent incident five years ago," he posted on social media, referring to the death of nine victims by a shooter focusing on individuals of immigrant origin in five years prior.
