    (CNN) -- Just hours after Kobe Bryant returned from a trip to Colorado during which he is charged with sexually assaulting a woman, the NBA star made a 911 call from his home in Newport Beach, California, and paramedics treated a woman there, emergency officials said Friday.
    Although there is no indication the call is related to the sexual assault case, it was made shortly after he submitted to DNA testing in Colorado.
    According to Newport Beach officials, the call was made from Bryant's home at 12:40 a.m. July 3. The caller hung up without talking. Emergency officials called the home back and talked to Bryant, who they said was the original caller.
    Paramedics arrived at the house within 10 minutes and gave assistance to a woman lying in bed. Authorities said "further transport was refused," and the emergency crew left the home by 1:13 a.m.
    Officials would not say whether the woman was Bryant's wife, Vanessa.
    The star guard for the Los Angeles Lakers will appear in court Wednesday to hear the reading of the sexual assault charge against him. (Full story)
    Bryant was charged with one count of sexual assault after a 19-year-old woman told police that he assaulted her June 30 at a mountain lodge where she worked and where Bryant was staying.
    Bryant has acknowledged having sex with the woman, but he said it was consensual and that he did not assault her.
    The woman went to police July 1, and the next day, Bryant voluntarily submitted to DNA testing at a hospital in Colorado. He then flew home to California.
    On July 4, he returned to Colorado, where he was arrested and photographed before posting bond. He then flew back to California.

    Bryant called 911 day before he surrendered to police

    NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. -- Kobe Bryant called 911 the day before he surrendered to police on a sexual assault accusation and medics later treated a female at his home, officials said Friday.

    The Los Angeles Lakers' star hung up the phone without talking, but a dispatcher called back, speaking to three people, including Bryant, before sending police and paramedics, Sgt. Steve Shulman said.

    "He confirmed that the reason for the call that he made initially was for medical assistance at the residence and the medical assistance was not for him, it was for someone else," Shulman said.

    Bryant made the call the day before he returned to Colorado to surrender to police after being accused of sexually assaulting a woman at an exclusive spa. He is free on $25,000 bail.

    Shortly after he called 911, medics treated a female at the house but did not need to take her to the hospital, said Vickie Cleary, emergency services manager for the Newport Beach Fire Department.

    No further details were immediately available, and it was unclear whether the medics treated a woman or child. Bryant and his wife, Vanessa, had a baby girl in January.

    Paramedics were summoned to the house for a similar medical emergency on March 5, Cleary said. During that call, paramedics took a female to the hospital after evaluating and treating her at the home.
