Officers reported they were contacted by a man who noticed a car in Hanau covered with red-colored fluid

Around fifty vehicles have been marked with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's municipality of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by authorities.

Automobiles, exterior walls and postal boxes were marked, in some cases with Nazi symbols, they announced in a release.

Police say they were notified late on Wednesday evening, when a individual discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been covered with a reddish-hued fluid.

The fluid had been placed in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they added.

Law enforcement then located many other marked cars and building exteriors in the surrounding area.

Nazi symbols are prohibited in Germany under laws prohibiting the public exhibition of symbols from the Nazi era.

Officials report preliminary tests indicate the fluid was likely human blood.

"At present there remains no lead as to its origin; officials are presently not cognizant of any physical harm in connection with the event," they stated.

City officials said they were trying "to resolve the incident" and have appealed to the community for details.

An important political figure commented the incident left him stunned and required to be solved promptly.

"This incident affects the core of Hanau and revives the pain of the right-wing violent incident half a decade ago," he stated on a platform, mentioning the murder of nine individuals by a gunman targeting residents of immigrant origin in 2020.
