FALLS CHURCH, Va.—Amber Heard’s sister testified Wednesday that she found herself in the middle of fights—literally and figuratively—between her sister and Johnny Depp during their troubled relationship.

Whitney Heard Henriquez is the first witness to testify at the five-week civil trial to say she personally witnessed Depp hitting Heard. Depp has testified he never struck Heard.
