Wait...WHAT?

Two phone calls came into the Portland 911 switchboard recently within seconds of each other....both from the same home....both reporting the same thing:  "A strange man in the home".  Problem is, they were talking about EACH OTHER!

An Intruder had broken into a home on Monday night and was surprised when the Homeowner returned and, accompanied by his two German Shepherds, asked him what he was doing there.  The Intruder locked himself in a bathroom and phoned the police - stating he was afraid the Homeowner had a gun.

The Homeowner called 911 to report the break-in as well.

Timothy James Chapek, of Portland, was booked into jail for investigation of first-degree criminal trespass.
