Authorities on Monday released audio from an early Saturday 911 call made by a homeowner reporting an intruder at his home in the Roads End neighborhood of east Minnehaha.

At 2:14 a.m., the homeowner, Robert Blakemore, 66, called 911, saying his dog’s barking woke him up to discover an intruder in his home just 20 seconds before he called. Officials later learned the intruder had torn through a cedar fence leading to the backyard of 3719 N.E. 54th Ave. and walked in through an unlocked back door.

Blakemore locked himself and his wife, Janice, 61, in their bedroom with the dog while Blakemore pointed a gun at the door.

“He’s in my house trying to break into my bedroom,” Blakemore told the 911 dispatcher. “He’s trying to kick the door in.”

The Clark Regional Emergency Services Agency dispatcher told Blakemore to tell the intruder police were on the way and he needed to leave. Both Blakemore and his wife told the intruder to leave.
