Barron Trump 'saved woman's life' by calling 999 as his friend was 'being attacked' during Facetime call, court hears

Donald Trump's youngest son Barron saved the life of a woman in London by phoning the police when he witnessed her being beaten up over a videocall, a court heard.

Barron Trump spoke directly with police call handlers after calling 999 when he heard what he thought was Russian national Matvei Rumiantsev repeatedly punching his friend in his London flat.

Rumiantsev, 22, was jealous of Mr Trump’s relationship with the woman and flew into a rage when the American tried to phone her earlier that evening, prosecutors said.

He then answered a videocall from the President’s son to the woman’s phone, showed Mr Trump her face then grabbed her hair and pushed her to the floor shouting ‘you are not worth anything,’ Snaresbrook Crown Court was told.

During the alleged attack Rumiantsev called the woman a ‘slut’ and a ‘whore’ and kicked her in the stomach when she was on the floor next to the fridge, jurors heard.

Mr Trump, 19, spent some time working out how to reach the emergency service in Britain before telling a call handler: ‘I just got a call from a girl, you know. She’s getting beaten up.’

Jurors were played a recording of the call in which he gives the woman’s address then adds: ‘It’s really an emergency, please. I got a call from her with a guy beating her up.’

Mr Trump tells the call handler he knows the woman through social media, after being ticked off by the operator for refusing to answer questions.

It’s great that Barron was concerned about this woman’s safety and did his best to help her, though one might question the prudence of him face-timing random girls whom “he knows through social media.” But, hey, I remember what it’s like to be his age, and few amongst us wouldn’t be doing the same thing if we had the chance. That is to say, he’s 19, and he’s got pretty girls all over the world expressing interest, and few lads in his situation would exercise much in the way of self-restraint.

He must have Prince Harry’s old PR firm.

“Harry Walks an Old Lady Across the Street”

“Harry Saves a kitten Trapped in a Tree”

“Harry Helps Disabled Person with their Wheelchair”

If Harry had his old team, he wouldn’t be in the dog house as much as he is now.

I wouldn’t have any idea how to call “999” (aka, the police, in the States, 911), from outside of England.

Just like if I was in England, I have no idea how to call 911 in the States.

I wonder why the Daily Fail isn’t allowing comments on the article...

There was nothing rude there. He was being asked inane questions while a woman was being beaten. How about show at least some sense of urgency to get that stopped? How about “I’ve alerted the police, while they are en route could you tell me (insert question here)”?

I read the Transcript of Barron Trump’s call with the City of London Police, and Barron was not rude, the 999 operator was a Pansy.

Right! They have one job-to act (or, listen, and react) with urgency!
