MSNBC has more. There was a second 911 call from Kobe's house. THis one on March 5th. Paramedics treated a woman at his house, and then brought her to the hospital.

I heard on local radio that she was hyperventilating.

I would think this is a common reaction among wives who are told that their is accused of rape on top of being unfaithful.

A common treatment is the purchase of multi-million dollar jewelry.

Be interesting to see what the March 5th call was about. She wasn't hyperventilating about Colorado then.

Paramedics arrived at the house within 10 minutes after the call and provided assistance to a female 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 if the female was Bryant's wife, Vanessa.

Looks like unlike some of the accuser's "friends," some people how to keep a secret.

Vanessa might have attempted homicide. Kobe being so much larger, she then bounced off and knocked herself senseless.

And if you had attempted suicide I believe that they would take the "victim" to the hospital no matter what they think.

Kobe has alot of "SLUTS & NUTS" around him...if Vanessa attempted suicide...it will diminish the 19 year old's attempts...it will be considered passe.

There was also a 911 call in March from the Bryant home.

The call was placed by "a friend" for a woman who was taken to a hospital and treated. More details unknown.

Reported on Shepard Smith's Fox program by Carol McKinley.

And this part of the story:

The caller hung up without talking. Emergency officials called the home back and talked to Bryant, who they said was the original caller.

In light of the context could be the woman placing the call and Kobe Bryant hanging up, but then claiming he placed it. The hang up aspect is very odd.
