Coronation Street: Amy reported Aaron

Last night, Summer asked Aaron if she could use his phone and became suspicious when she saw a message that he had sent to Amy. Aaron then told Summer that he and Amy had slept together after they had broken up, both now regretting it.

With this, Summer confronted Amy and threw her chips at her. Amy was left sobbing as she went home to tell Tracy that Aaron had raped her. She couldn’t bring herself to tell Steve so Tracy agreed to tell him for her.

With both parents now knowing the truth, they encouraged Amy to report Aaron to the police. Tracy accompanied Amy to the police station where she retold the events of the nigh she was raped in a police interview. She then agreed to hand over her phone for evidence.

Later on, the police then turned up a the garage to arrest Aaron on suspicion of rape. Aaron made out that Amy was lying and wanted to have sex with him just as much as he did.
