A noose was found hanging in the garage stall used by Bubba Wallace, NASCAR’s only African American driver just weeks after he convinced the auto racing organization to ban confederate flags at tracks and facilities, ESPN reported.

According to ESPN, Wallace never saw the noose himself, but another member of his team did see it and told NASCAR about it.

The incident comes as Wallace led a successful effort to get NASCAR to ban the confederate flag from its events.
