Around 50 vehicles have been covered with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's town of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, as reported by authorities.
Automobiles, walls and mailboxes were defaced, sometimes with swastikas, they reported in a official communication.
Police say they were contacted during the night on Wednesday, when a resident discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been marked with a reddish-hued substance.
The substance had been applied in the shape of a swastika, they stated.
Law enforcement then found numerous other smeared vehicles and house walls in the nearby vicinity.
Swastikas are banned in Germany under regulations outlawing the visible presentation of Nazi-era symbols.
Officials say early analysis show the liquid was probably blood from a person.
"There is still no clue as to its source; authorities are presently not cognizant of any harm in association with the occurrence," they added.
Local authorities announced they were working "to solve the incident" and have appealed to the community for details.
A high-ranking political figure commented the vandalism rendered him without words and needed to be resolved promptly.
"This act hits the core of Hanau and revives the wounds of the right-wing violent incident five years ago," he wrote on a platform, recalling the killing of nine people by a assailant aiming at individuals of foreign heritage in five years prior.
