NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. (CNN) -- Just hours after Kobe Bryant returned from a trip to Colorado where he allegedly sexually assaulted a woman, the NBA star made an emergency 911 call from his home 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. on July 3 to the 911 dispatch system. 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 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.

The star guard for the Los Angeles Lakers will appear in court next Wednesday to hear the reading of the sexual assault charge against him.

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 he had sex with the woman, but he insists it was consensual and that he did not assault her.

The woman went to police on July 1, and the next day, Bryant voluntarily submitted to DNA testing at a Colorado hospital. He then flew home to California.

On July 4, he returned to Colorado where he was arrested, photographed and then posted bond. He then once again flew back to California.
