Very similar but..............
I had a copy of the entire 911 call on the earlier one you're talking about. Reference it taking the police 21 minutes to get there, it was probably out in the sticks. We're talking wide open spaces. 21 minutes would be extremely good response time for some of the places we've been in OK and SD. On the earlier incident, mentioned above, it was over an hour! There was no LEO on duty anywhere near the incident. They called an off duty officer from the closest town and dispatched a deputy from the next county and the lady's son who was a deputy on duty in another county further away. Same deal, though. The lady said she had a shotgun and was going to shoot the guy if came in. The dispatcher told her to do what she had to do. She actually told the dispatcher something like "he's going to break the sliding door, I'm putting the phone down". Then you could hear the glass break and the shotgun fire. I'm gonna' have to see if I still have that file somewhere. That event spurred me to get a HD shotgun.
Edit: Don't know if the entire call is on here, but here's the story.
Edit II: Apparently the videos don't work anymore.

Very similar to the story from a few years back when 911 told an older woman to use her shotgun when a guy broke through her sliding glass door.
She did what she had to.
