Someone has chiseled a petroglyph (rock carving) out of the cliff that it was embedded in, in Utah. The Paiute people are disgusted at the act (see video).
Thieves Steal Irreplaceable Native American Art."... The BLM is offering a 5,000 dollar reward to whoever can give them information that leads to the recovery of the artifact and the arest and conviction of the thieves..."

Best image that I've found, so far. The tan area encircling the anthropomorphic figure is a previous attempt to chisel around the glyph. The current thief(ves) must have just finished chiselling it out.
