“911 is on here listening to you, you ain’t breaking nothing!” the 911 caller said.
“Ma’am, ma’am, I need you to talk to me,” the dispatcher replies.
“Get out of here,” the caller said.
Just after this, several loud bangs are heard on the 911 call.
“I’m on oxygen, he’s breaking in my door,” the caller said.
When police got to the scene, they saw the man, later identified as 65-year-old Steven Elzey, breaking through the front window of the home.
The caller told dispatchers that Elzey was “an ex.”
Police tried to detain Elzey, but he went into the home through the broken window.
A short time later, police saw a fire in the home.
First responders made forced entry into the home and were able to take Elzey into custody.
The fire was then quickly put out.
Police said Elzey is being held on several charges, including burglary, obstructing official business, and resisting arrest.
The fire remains under investigation.
