Roughly fifty vehicles have been covered with what seems to be human blood in the Germany's municipality of Hanau near Frankfurt, as reported by authorities.
Vehicles, exterior walls and postboxes were marked, occasionally with swastikas, they reported in a statement.
Police state they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday evening, when a man discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been covered with a reddish-hued liquid.
The substance had been drawn in the shape of a banned symbol, they added.
Law enforcement then located numerous other smeared automobiles and house walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
Nazi symbols are illegal in Germany under legislation outlawing the visible presentation of Nazi-era symbols.
Police say early analysis suggest the substance was most likely blood from a person.
"At present there remains no clue as to its source; investigators are not yet informed of any harm in association with the occurrence," they commented.
City officials stated they were working "to resolve the case" and have asked to the community for tips.
A high-ranking political figure commented the incident left him speechless and had to be resolved promptly.
"This act affects the core of Hanau and reawakens the trauma of the extremist attack five years ago," he posted on a platform, referring to the murder of nine individuals by a gunman targeting individuals of migrant background in five years prior.
