A St. Catharines teen is in hot water in connection to a police call in Port Dalhousie. 

Friday night around 8:00pm, officers were called to Lakeside Park about a large disturbance and found a 17-year-old woman with injuries to her head after allegedly being attacked by several other teenage girls. 

Shortly after, a 15-year-old was arrested and charged with assault. Police say there's been an uptick in disturbances in Port Dalhousie this summer, and has increased its uniformed presence in the area as a result.
