A devout Christian left an angry note on a car parked outside his house – only to find out it belonged to a nun.

Darice Simpson, 29, placed the note, which read “move your s**tbox!”, on the window of the red vehicle.

But he soon ran to remove it when he spotted a nun walking back to the car.

Darice said the nun, who wasn’t named, took the note with good humour.

Darice, a sauté cook and devout Christian, said: “I was sitting outside cleaning my shoes and I saw the car parked outside.

“I understand that I don’t own the street and that it’s not illegal, but we have an unwritten rule, you don’t do that.

“I just left it there for a laugh, I wasn’t genuinely angry.

“I saw the nun walking down the street and I ran to get the note off the car, I said I’m so sorry sister I hope you have a blessed day.

“She asked what the note said, and I said that’s none of your concern, sister, but then I showed her and she laughed.

Darice, who is from Warren, Ohio said that his grandmother was a minister and he wanted to show utmost respect to the nun.

He added: “It was a friendly encounter but when I saw it was a god-fearing woman who drove the car, I remembered my grandmother.

“She would have kicked my *ss”

Darice explained that he is an ex-convict and has been struggling to adapt to being outside after serving four years in prison.

He said that he saw this as an opportunity to correct himself and work towards assimilating back into society.

Darice said: “I did four years in prison, so I tend to be a bit more aggressive in my encounters.

“She was there spreading the word, and I am a strong believer so I needed to show her the utmost respect.

“I did something goofy to get a laugh, and it turned out to be misguided, but I corrected it and we had a laugh in the end.”
