Roughly fifty cars have been covered with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's municipality of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, according to authorities.
Vehicles, exterior walls and mailboxes were marked, occasionally with swastikas, they announced in a official communication.
Law enforcement state they were alerted during the night on Wednesday night, when a resident discovered that a car in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been covered with a red-colored substance.
The fluid had been drawn in the shape of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Police then located many other marked cars and house walls in the nearby vicinity.
Nazi symbols are prohibited in Germany under legislation prohibiting the public exhibition of Nazi-era symbols.
Officials say initial examinations indicate the fluid was most likely human bodily fluid.
"There is still no indication as to its origin; officials are not yet aware of any physical harm in connection with the occurrence," they commented.
City officials announced they were trying "to unravel the mystery" and have asked to the public for details.
A high-ranking political figure commented the incident left him without words and had to be addressed quickly.
"This incident strikes at the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the right-wing attack half a decade ago," he posted on online, recalling the murder of nine individuals by a gunman targeting individuals of immigrant origin in five years prior.
