A father from Utah has confused children at a party by accidentally showing them porn.

The man is said to have connected his laptop to the TV in order to play a rented copy of The Smurfs, only for pornographic images to briefly flash on the screen instead.

Police have said that they will not charge the father for the incident, which was described as "fleeting but obvious".

The law officials only became involved when the father himself contacted them to complain of somebody tampering with the DVD, Tremonton police chief Dave Nance told the Standard-Examiner.

However, after finding nothing wrong with the disc, the police officers suggested that the porn was most likely already on the laptop, and was displayed on-screen after he pressed the wrong button.

Chief Nance confirmed that no charges will be made as the incident was most likely an accident.
