Roughly fifty automobiles have been covered with what seems to be blood from a person in the Germany's municipality of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, according to police.

Automobiles, walls and postal boxes were vandalized, in some cases with Nazi symbols, they announced in a official communication.

Officers say they were contacted late on Wednesday night, when a individual noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been marked with a reddish-hued substance.

The fluid had been drawn in the form of a banned symbol, they added.

Police then found many other smeared vehicles and building exteriors in the surrounding area.

Nazi symbols are prohibited in Germany under laws prohibiting the public display of Nazi-era symbols.

Law enforcement state preliminary tests suggest the fluid was most likely blood from a person.

"There is still no clue as to where it came from; investigators are presently not aware of any physical harm in association with the event," they stated.

Municipal representatives said they were working "to unravel the incident" and have requested to the public for tips.

A high-ranking representative said the attack made him stunned and needed to be addressed promptly.

"This event strikes at the center of Hanau and revives the trauma of the far-right violent incident in 2020," he posted on a platform, referring to the death of nine victims by a assailant focusing on people of foreign heritage in 2020.
