A 20-year-old builder has been ordered to pay more than £500 after he drew a penis on a police officer's face using Snapchat.

Jordan Barrack secretly took the photo on his mobile phone while being interviewed by an officer at Sleaford Police Station, Lincoln.

He then drew two penises on the picture using Snapchat, one over the officer PC Charles Harris' face, before sending it to some friends and posting it on Facebook.

Barrack, from Ruskington, said he's "massively shocked" at the punishment and said: "People have come up to me and said they can't believe it got to court and said it was a waste of taxpayers' money. I was massively shocked at the fine."

He pleaded guilty at Lincoln Magistrates' Court to 'posting a grossly offensive, obscene picture on a social media site' and was ordered to pay £400 in compensation.

The youngster, who lives with his parents, had to pay an additional £85 of costs and a £60 victim surcharge, and was ordered to serve a 12 month community order with 40 hours of unpaid work.

Barrack reportedly said he took the photo because he was bored of waiting to give officers an account of a bar brawl he had witnessed.

He added: "He [the police officer] was writing things down and I just sat there bored out of my head so got my phone out and thought I would be a bit cocky and did it. I thought nothing would come of it.

They confiscated my phone at the time and I still haven't got it back over five months later even though the case is finished now."

Barrack was not represented by anyone and told the court: "I am terribly sorry and it was a massive mistake and I shouldn't have done it.

Please send my apologies to the officer if I was to see them again I would apologise to them."
