He is then heard on the 911 call telling police he was backing up his truck to check on things.

“I’ve never seen this guy before in the neighborhood,” he said breathing heavily during the call. “When I turned around and backed up, he reached into his pocket and ran into the house, so I don’t know if he’s armed or not, but he was acting like he was.” 

The person, McMichaels claims he saw in the house was never apprehended.
