Approximately fifty cars have been covered with what appears to be human blood in the Germany's city of Hanau near Frankfurt, as reported by police.
Automobiles, walls and postboxes were vandalized, in some cases with swastikas, they announced in a official communication.
Officers state they were notified late on Wednesday night, when a individual noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been smeared with a red-colored liquid.
The substance had been applied in the form of a swastika, they added.
Police then found many other marked automobiles and house walls in the nearby vicinity.
Nazi symbols are banned in Germany under regulations banning the public exhibition of Nazi-era symbols.
Law enforcement state preliminary tests indicate the liquid was most likely human blood.
"There is still no indication as to its origin; officials are presently not informed of any physical harm in connection with the event," they stated.
City officials said they were attempting "to unravel the case" and have asked to the residents for tips.
A high-ranking representative said the incident rendered him stunned and required to be resolved quickly.
"This act strikes at the center of Hanau and reopens the trauma of the right-wing terrorist attack five years ago," he wrote on a platform, recalling the murder of nine victims by a gunman focusing on residents of foreign heritage in 2020.
