The terrified boy made the call as he hid in a bathroom with his 6-year-old sister.

The child thought his parents were going to be killed and (mistakenly) believed they had been shot.

"Can you come really fast? please! please! ... they have guns!" the boy told the operator. "They shot my mom and dad ... there's some guy who's going to kill my mom and dad ... bring cops -- a lot of them! -- and soldiers, too!"

At that point, the robbers broke into the bathroom and the boy told them he had called 911, police said. The trio of robbers then fled the scene without taking anything or hurting anyone.
