An NRLW player has been charged with assaulting a teenager inside a Sydney eastern suburbs unit block over an argument relating to a food delivery order.
Parramatta Eels player Kate Fallon, 20, was charged after emergency services were called to an apartment complex at Namatjira Place, Chifley at about 1.30pm last Tuesday.
Paramedics treated a 17-year-old girl for injuries to her head before she was taken to Prince of Wales Hospital as a precaution and released.
Ms Fallon was arrested at the scene and charged with assault occasioning actual bodily harm.
She was granted bail and will appear in Waverley Local Court on August 14.
The girl’s father told 2GB that the alleged altercation occurred when she ordered $70 worth of UberEats and it did not arrive.
He described her injuries as “gruesome”.
“She’s not too bad considering what she’s been through, you know what I mean,” he said.
“And the funny thing about it is I haven’t received a call from anyone, the NRLW, Parramatta or even the Integrity Unit.”
Parramatta said in a statement that they were aware of a matter involving one of their NRLW players.
“The club advised the NRL integrity unit as per our normal process,” the club said.
“As it is a police matter, the club will not be making further comment at this time.”
