GOLDEN, Colo. -- A state legislative candidate from Jefferson County accused of slapping and choking his 16-year-old daughter pleaded guilty Tuesday to third-degree assault.

Vince Chowdhury, 48, got angry when his wife and daughter didn't open the garage door quickly enough when he honked his car horn in their driveway on June 17, according to an arrest affidavit. The document said Chowdhury, a Jefferson County school board member, sat in the driveway several minutes honking his horn.

His wife and daughter apologized for making him wait but he thought the apology insincere so he slapped his daughter's face and then began to choke her with both hands when she backed away, the girl said.

The girl told police that she bit one of her father's hands before her mother pulled him off her.
