Whether he runs or not, defiantly call the police. In my LE days I've seen this happen more then once, where the bandit fees after finding someone is home only to be caught down the street.
He may be checking to see if someone is home, or in a woman is home alone.
So the cop shows up and the bandit is gone, better that then processing a crime scene next door because you didn't call, or worse, having the police find a rape or assault victim.
I'm not saying its wrong to have your self defense pistol/revolver in your hand when you peek through the peep hole, to the contrary, I'm just stressing that if he fees, the threat may not be over, may be over for you, but not your neighbor.
