A MAN was in an intoxicated state in Letterkenny University Hospital’s emergency department and refused to leave when asked to do so by staff.
Letterkenny District Court this week was told how on December 27, 2024 at 11.24pm, gardaí were on patrol when they received a call from staff about a highly intoxicated male in the accident and emergency department of LUH.
Staff at the hospital asked Dawid Beryg (33), of 18 The Hawthorns, Buncrana, to leave the building but he refused, the court was told.
Beryg was arrested by gardai and conveyed to Letterkenny Garda Station.
