Was I wrong to call the cops?

Fair enough. Still, I think it's reasonable to assume that, if someone doesn't have a gun, they don't have a taser. If you've got an arsenal at your disposal, don't grab a knife. If you have no other weapon, grab the knife and get yourself into a position where you have the drop on the intruder and are close enough to rush him.

If you can run away because nobody else is home, so much the better, but that isn't usually the case in the middle of the night.
