A terrified phone call from Sandra Bullock to emergency services after a break-in at her home has been played in court.

The Gravity star was targeted by alleged stalker Joshua Corbett last June when he gained access to her property in Hollywood.

Several machine guns were later found at his home and he was subsequently arrested and charged with burglary, stalking and possession of a machine gun, and 19 additional felony weapons charges, to which he has pleaded not guilty.

A recording of a call made by Bullock to 911 was played at a preliminary hearing this week in which the frightened actress is heard telling the operator “I hear – I hear them. I hear someone banging on the door”.

“Someone has broken into my house. I’m hiding in the closet. I’m locked in my closet. I have a safe door in my bedroom, and I’ve locked it, and I’m locked in the closet right now.”

According to Sky News, seven years and four months in prison if convicted on the three felony counts of burglary, stalking and possession, with an additional maximum prison term of 12 years if convicted on the felony weapons charges.
