Richard Gadd, the actor and writer known for “Baby Reindeer,” tells Glasgow Sheriff Court that he called emergency services after seeing an incident in a neighboring flat. According to his account, he feared the woman above him might be killed and dialed 999.

Court reporting says Gadd describes seeing what he called a “flurry of arms” during the alleged attack. The case involves allegations by a woman, Xiaoma Zhang, against a 22-year-old man, Lucas Bains. The reports indicate the court is hearing evidence relating to what Gadd witnessed from his own location and his actions immediately afterward.

The outlet coverage focuses on Gadd’s testimony about the call and the circumstances he observed, while other case details beyond this account are not provided in the excerpts. Proceedings are taking place in Glasgow Sheriff Court.
