Roughly 50 automobiles have been covered with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's town of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, according to authorities.
Cars, walls and postboxes were defaced, sometimes with Nazi symbols, they reported in a release.
Law enforcement state they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday, when a individual noticed that a car in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been marked with a red-colored liquid.
The substance had been applied in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Law enforcement then discovered numerous other marked automobiles and building exteriors in the surrounding area.
Nazi symbols are prohibited in Germany under legislation outlawing the visible presentation of symbols from the Nazi era.
Law enforcement say early analysis indicate the fluid was most likely human blood.
"At present there remains no lead as to where it came from; authorities are currently not cognizant of any harm in relation with the incident," they stated.
Municipal representatives stated they were trying "to solve the mystery" and have asked to the public for details.
A senior official stated the attack rendered him stunned and needed to be resolved promptly.
"This act strikes at the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the trauma of the extremist attack five years ago," he wrote on social media, referring to the death of nine people by a assailant focusing on individuals of immigrant origin in five years prior.
