A Rock Hill father is facing charges after allegedly striking his teen daughter with a belt for violating curfew.

Sonny Feely is the teen’s grandfather who lives in the home, told NBC Charlotte that his granddaughter showed up at their home around 2 a.m., past curfew, with her boyfriend and a couple friends.

Sonny says she had previously “mouthed off” to her father, 36-year-old SekariĀ Arrie Feely, on the phone saying, “I’ll do what I want to do.”

According to police reports, Sekari told officers his daughter’s boyfriend presented a gun. However, the supposed gun was later discovered to be a BB gun.

The report says that the teen and her boyfriend say she was knocked to the ground with a belt strike from her father and was struck again.

Sonny admits that his son hit the teen with a belt twice, however he said the teen was not hurt.

The grandfather also noted that his son is a single father and has had custody of his daughter for five years now.
