Update: Steven Zioba pleaded guilty and was sentenced on April 12, 2018, for second degree domestic violence, breach of peace and second degree assault and battery, court records show. He was sentenced to 18 days, plus time served, in jail and a $1,250 fine. A charge of pointing and presenting a weapon was dismissed.

A York man turned himself in Monday night after he was accused in connection with a domestic violence case the night before, according to a York County Sheriff’s Office report.

Steven Michael Zioba, 35, turned himself in at the Moss Justice Center at about 5 p.m. Tuesday, the report says.

Deputies responded to a call on Apple Blossom Road just before 8 p.m. Aug. 20.

One of the victims told deputies that Zioba had just left the house in a black 1994 Ford Mustang convertible with a 9mm handgun, the report says.

A victim said she and Zioba got into a “verbal altercation,” the report says.

The victim told officers Zioba started yelling at her and pointing the gun at her, the report says. The victim said she then yelled at two others with her to “run away and call for help,” the report says.

The victim said Zioba followed her outside and was pointing the gun, the report says. The report says Zioba fired the gun at the ground three times, and officers found three 9mm shell casings.

Zioba was charged with domestic violence of a high and aggravated nature and three counts of pointing and presenting a firearm.
