The vandalism was discovered by workers at the site who then set to work to remove the paint. They had to grind down the stone to remove the shadow of the words left behind. "The reaction of the people who found it was shock, upset and disgust, which was our reaction as well," he said. "I think that was also the reaction of the local people and the French authorities."
