Not likely. If I'm away and my house alarm is tripped and they come I know the police won't rob me, and I will appreciate their checking for a burglar and politely get them the hell off my property. If a burglar tries to or enters my house while I'm home he/she will find themselves looking at the business end of a shotgun (or two if Mrs Towrope is home). Depending on that outcome it'll be me calling to report a break-in or a neighbor reporting a gunshot. I don't scare easily.
