'Apes were never meant to drive so stop.' writes nurse to her African American neighbors [View all]

A mother has been arrested for referring to her African-American neighbors as 'apes' during a dispute over a parking space.
Eva Chapin, 34, from West Linn, Oregon, was booked into jail after she left a string of offensive post-it notes on the door of the family home.
The qualified nurse referred to the residents, who are believed to have roots in Ghana, as 'n*****' but wrote: 'I am not racist'.

One of the notes, seen by KATU, read: 'Apes were never meant to drive so stop.'
Another said: 'I've been here 22 years and no [expletive] and now you. U made me hate [expletive] now.'

'I'm not racist,' one of the notes allegedly said, 'but I can see how someone can become [sic] hating [expletive]. You did this. There were no [expletive] in W.L. until u came.'
