Woman’s racial slurs lead to injunction

AUGUSTA – State prosecutors have obtained an injunction against a woman who assaulted a Portland parking officer and mocked him because of his ethnicity.

Freedom Hamlin of Portland is permanently banned from having contact with Yasin Ahmady, a parking officer who emigrated as a political refugee from Afghanistan more than 20 years ago.

Back in February, Ahmady was placing the boot on a wheel of Hamlin’s car when she kicked him in the foot, spat in his face and shouted, “Go back to the country you came from. You don’t belong here,” Assistant Attorney General Thom Harnett said.
