Andrea Dobyns, a Santa Fe police spokewoman, said that the incident began when Chappelle noticed someone sketching on a paper during his show in northern New Mexico city. He liked the drawing and asked for the sketcher's name.

The sketcher said that his name was "Johnny Appleseed," which gave the comedian an idea to make the name as a joke in the show. The 30-year-old Christian Englander, who's also a friend of the sketch artist, got mad as he perceived the comedian's jokes as racist and threw the banana peel at Chappelle in response.
