Around fifty cars have been marked with what appears to be blood from a person in the German city of Hanau near Frankfurt, as reported by authorities.
Vehicles, building surfaces and mailboxes were vandalized, sometimes with prohibited symbols, they reported in a statement.
Law enforcement state they were contacted late on Wednesday, when a individual noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been marked with a reddish-hued substance.
The substance had been applied in the shape of a Nazi symbol, they reported.
Law enforcement then located multiple other marked automobiles and house walls in the nearby vicinity.
Nazi symbols are banned in Germany under legislation banning the public exhibition of Nazi symbols.
Police say initial examinations indicate the fluid was probably blood from a person.
"At present there remains no lead as to its origin; officials are not yet aware of any injuries in connection with the event," they added.
City officials said they were attempting "to unravel the mystery" and have appealed to the community for tips.
A senior official stated the vandalism made him speechless and had to be resolved rapidly.
"This event strikes at the center of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the right-wing terrorist attack in 2020," he stated on a platform, recalling the murder of nine individuals by a gunman focusing on individuals of immigrant origin in 2020.
