On Sunday, Aug. 11 just before 1 a.m. officers were dispatched to the 4100 block of Dewdney Avenue for the report of a weapons offence, a Regina police news release said.
Police learned that a victim had been struck in the head by a bladed weapon.
The victim was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries, according to the news release.
While investigating, police received a suspect description. The information led officers to a home on the 2800 block of Dewdney Avenue where they discovered a woman matching the suspect description.
She was taken into custody without incident.
The 19-year-old accused is charged with one count of aggravated assault and failure to comply with a release order.
