HAMMOND, Ind. -- Police in Northwest Indiana have released the audio tape of an emergency call for help.
A woman was reportedly watching TV when she heard a window breaking in her home and called 911.
She then hid in a closet, armed with a gun.
The tape captures the woman struggling with a man, repeatedly saying, "Stop it. Stop it."
The woman eventually shot and killed the intruder. Police said she will not face charges, because she acted in self defense.
