Roughly fifty vehicles have been smeared with what seems to be human blood in the Germany's city of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to police.
Vehicles, exterior walls and postal boxes were defaced, occasionally with prohibited symbols, they announced in a official communication.
Law enforcement report they were notified in the late hours on Wednesday, when a resident noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been covered with a reddish-hued liquid.
The liquid had been applied in the shape of a Nazi symbol, they reported.
Police then found many other marked cars and residential walls in the nearby vicinity.
These symbols are illegal in Germany under regulations outlawing the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.
Police state initial examinations show the substance was most likely human blood.
"There is still no clue as to its source; officials are presently not informed of any physical harm in association with the event," they added.
City officials stated they were attempting "to resolve the case" and have appealed to the community for tips.
An important official stated the attack rendered him without words and required to be resolved promptly.
"This incident affects the core of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the extremist violent incident half a decade ago," he stated on social media, referring to the death of nine people by a assailant focusing on individuals of migrant background in five years prior.
