A Leeds thug dragged his daughter's partner out of his car and left her bleeding on the roadside after she carried on playing with the vehicle's radio when he told her to stop.
Shane Higgins, 38, had been drinking with his daughter and partner when the two of them went to get more alcohol on August 2, 2020. During the journey, the woman began to play with the radio and believed Higgins was joking when he told her to stop.
Prosecutor Harry Crowson told Leeds Crown Court on Thursday: "He became aggressive and told her if she didn't stop he would hit her. She didn't think he was serious and continued. He stopped the car, got out and went around to her side. He dragged her from the vehicle to the floor where she hit her face against the curb, causing injury to her nose. Then, showing no real regard for her wellbeing, simply got in the car and drove away, leaving her some distance from where they had been and her home."
