i've looked at it so much and i still can't make out what the 3rd letter is in the 1st word, but it looks like "STIP WAS HERE"
i agree that this person put a lot of effort, but why mine??

Because he's very short, and left-handed.

its marker pen so some isopropyl alcohol will have it off in a few seconds... unless its one of those etching grafitti markers - then you you have no chance

As was mentioned you have to give it to a short left handed person |

Take that picture to the cops and let them have a copy, if you can provide details about a possible timeframe when this happened it will make them even happier. They will likely either offer a cleaning service (likely payed even by the state) and/or tell you a trick how to get rid of it. Most likely they might even send by a cop to take official photos.
Now, that does not really help you, but if this person ever gets caught tagging they go down for everything that looks the same..... and that is quite costly.

That'll learn him.

stephanie, stephen
each of the 3 words can be read so many different ways
fascinating, hope it was easy to clean off

Could be the new 'Banksy' in which case don't remove it.
It could eventually be worth a fortune.
