Three officers were responding to a separate incident in the area and one spotted two people walking around the rear of the home in the 1200 block of Marie Lowe Drive, but he assumed they were going into the home because were residents, police said.
Officers arrived at the home following the 9-1-1 call and no one answered the door, police said.
As officers were checking around the dwelling, they found an open window and saw a person arrive. The woman who showed up said her boyfriend was in the residence and heard two people coming through a window, police said.
