A MAN was fined £150 for being a nuisance at a Southampton General Hospital. Southampton Magistrates' Court heard how Zi Zi Liu was taken to hospital by ambulance on December 25.

After being assessed doctors said there was no need for the 35-year-old to be there.

But Liu - who was spoken to at court by a Mandarin interpreter - became aggressive towards hospital staff and police were called.

He was charged and given bail - and told not to go back to hospital unless it was an emergency.

The court heard Liu, of Forest Hills Drive, Southampton, went back to hospital on December 29 - and again doctors found nothing wrong with him.

He was asked to leave and then arrested.

District Judge Anthony Callaway fined Liu £150 and ordered he pay a £30 victim surcharge.
