The incident took place on Monday morning and began when the child heard a knock on the front door but did not answer it, according to the police. He told an emergency dispatcher:

There’s two strangers and I don’t know them… I think they’re trying to open the door.

The child then hid after he saw the men in the backyard, before they entered the home and started to rob it, police said.

The boy said:

I’m in the closet. Please help.

This dispatcher at first assumes that the boy is a woman in need of help. It is only halfway through the 15-minute call that she realizes the boy’s age.

The boy says that his parents left for work and he was not expecting anyone. Terrified, the child whispers throughout the entire call. At some point, he tells the dispatcher that the two robbers see him. He said:

Please don’t hurt me. Oh my God, I don’t know what to do.

The dispatcher remained on the phone with the boy until police arrived. Officers arrested the suspects nearby.
