It does not matter who files the report with the police. It is not a personal injury claim, but claim that the law was violated. Somebody driving down the road can call 911 and report a drunk driver, even if they are not injured by the driver. They are just a "third" party. The same in your situation. Not just the partner can file a claim, but anyone who has knowledge of the situation can file a report.
