The husband of a Christian teacher who was shot and killed in her home while her children were asleep made the 911 call alerting authorities.

According to police dispatch logs obtained by News Center 7, authorities responded to reports of a burglary at Ashley and Caleb Flynn’s Tipp City, Ohio, home in the early morning hours of Monday, Feb. 16.

“Someone broke into the RP [reporting person’s] house, unknown if they are still there. Garage door is open,” the dispatcher said. “There was apparently a female shot in the head. Is not responding currently.

“Squad is en route; they aren’t staged yet. Are they good to respond in?” the dispatcher asked.

“Yes, one person only,” a first responder replied, according to the outlet.

On Monday, investigators told News Center 7 that only Ashley, Caleb and their two children were inside the home when someone broke in.

The person who called 911 told dispatchers there were kids in the home.

“RP and juvenile daughter are locked in a bedroom,” the dispatcher told police, according to the outlet.  “Just a correction — the juveniles are going to be in their own rooms asleep currently.”

On Thursday, Tipp City Chief Greg Adkins pushed back against reports that a suspect was in custody and had confessed to Ashley’s murder.

“This information is false and was never released by the Tipp City Police Department, the City of Tipp City or any collaborating law enforcement partners,” he said.

“The Flynn family is coping with an unimaginable loss, and the department will not try this case in the media. This matter will be resolved through the judicial process and adjudicated in a court of law.”

The department previously shared that the FBI and local police, including the Miami County Sheriff’s Office and the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation, are assisting in the investigation.

“We believe that this was an isolated incident targeting this specific residence,” Adkins told Fox News Digital Wednesday. “No information at this time to believe the public is in any danger. The investigation will continue until we can provide all the answers to the family and community.”

Ashley Flynn’s husband, Caleb, was an “American Idol” contestant, and shared his love for his wife during an interview for the show.

“I absolutely love the Lord. I love my wife more than anything. She is very, very pretty. … I love her,” Caleb said in a 2013 Hometown Interview segment for the hit competition show. “But, you know, I’m just a normal person who absolutely loves to sing more than anything in the world.”

“She was known for her beautiful smile, warmth, kindness and the positive impact she had on so many — both in and out of the classroom and on the court,” the school district said.

Christian Life Center in Butler Township also described Flynn as a beloved member of the church. In a statement, Pastor Jordan Hansen said she was “murdered in her home” and asked for prayers for her husband, two daughters and extended family.
