Around fifty vehicles have been marked with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's city of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to authorities.
Automobiles, exterior walls and postal boxes were marked, occasionally with prohibited symbols, they reported in a official communication.
Law enforcement report they were alerted during the night on Wednesday, when a individual noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been covered with a reddish substance.
The substance had been applied in the pattern of a swastika, they stated.
Law enforcement then found many other marked vehicles and building exteriors in the nearby vicinity.
Nazi symbols are banned in Germany under regulations banning the public exhibition of symbols from the Nazi era.
Law enforcement state preliminary tests show the liquid was likely human bodily fluid.
"At present there remains no indication as to its origin; authorities are presently not aware of any harm in association with the event," they stated.
Municipal representatives stated they were working "to solve the incident" and have appealed to the public for tips.
An important political figure stated the attack left him stunned and had to be resolved rapidly.
"This incident affects the center of Hanau and reopens the trauma of the extremist terrorist attack half a decade ago," he stated on social media, mentioning the murder of nine individuals by a assailant targeting residents of foreign heritage in five years prior.
