A dad has been hit with a £1,100 legal bill and a conviction for assault after he slapped his teenage daughter in the face during a family row over her social media use.
Gary Finn, 51, struck the 15-year old girl he regarded as "his Princess" with the back of his hand after she railed against him when he accused her of posting embarrassing pictures of him on Snapchat.
It is thought Finn had asked the teenager how she would like it if he posted similar pictures of her online - but the pair began tussling when he grabbed her phone, a court heard.
