A Naples man has been banned from the UF Health-Leesburg Hospital after trespassing at the medical facility.
Steven Justice Ward, 42, was sentenced Wednesday in Lake County Court to time served following his arrest the previous day outside the hospital’s emergency room. Ward was arrested at about 1:30 a.m. having been previously trespassed from the hospital on March 23, according to an arrest report from the Leesburg Police Department.
In addition to time served, Ward was ordered to pay $500 in fines and court costs. The judge also ordered Ward to stay away from the hospital “unless suffering from a medical emergency.”
