The break-in unfolded on Monday morning when the youngster was home in Scottsdale, Arizona while his parents were at work.
When he heard a knock at his front door he didn't open it, but saw two men in the backyard. The duo then entered the home, according to police.
The boy ran to the closet and called 911. The dispatcher thinks she's speaking to a woman until she learns his real age half-way through the call, the recording shows.
He tells the dispatcher that the two men can see him.
"Please don't hurt me," the boy said in a quiet whisper. "Oh my God, I don't know what to do."
