President Donald Trump’s teenage son, Barron Trump, went to the police in the UK last year for an alleged assault, according to multiple reports.

In January 2025, Barron Trump made an emergency call to British authorities to report that a woman he met on social media had been assaulted. According to local reports including the London Standard, The Times, Sky News and Metro, the man told a dispatcher that he saw the woman being attacked during the video call.

On January 22nd, a transcript of the emergency call was read out in the Snaresbruck courtroom during the trial of Matvey Rumyantsev, who is accused of assaulting a woman.

Rumyantsev has been charged with assault, actual bodily harm, two counts of rape, intentional strangulation and perverting the course of justice, which he denies, according to reports.

USA TODAY has contacted Snaresbrook Crown Court, the Crown Prosecution Service and the White House.

The woman told the court that Barron Trump’s call to the police “saved her life,” according to reports.

The woman, whose name has not been released under UK privacy laws, reportedly testified in court that she had an affair with Rumyantsev, who had responded to a phone call from Barron Trump.

In response to Barron Trump’s phone call, the woman reportedly testified, “He saved my life. That phone call was like a sign from God.”

In a recording of Barron Trump’s emergency call released by various media outlets, the president’s son reportedly told a dispatcher that a woman was “being beaten.”

“This is a real emergency, please,” he told the operator.

Asked how he knew this woman, Barron Trump reportedly said, “I don’t think those details matter because she’s been beaten, but oh well, I met her on social media. I don’t think it matters.”

The operator responded, “Can you please stop being rude and actually answer my question? If you want to help this person, please answer my question clearly and accurately. Thank you.”

After providing more information, Barron Trump reportedly told the operator, “I’m sorry for being rude,” before hanging up.

The Times and Metro reported that police body camera footage from the scene showed a woman telling an officer, “I’m friends with Barron Trump, Donald Trump’s son.”

One of the officers then told a colleague, “It looks like this informant from America is likely Donald Trump’s son.”
