6:20 p.m. Tuesday — A young Allegheny County man was arrested on several charges, including violating a protection from abuse order after police found him in a car in the rear parking lot at the Penn Christian Academy School on Airport Road.

Austin G. Heade, 19, of Natrona Heights is accused of being in the vehicle with a 17-year-old girl who had a PFA against him, according to court documents.
