The 911 call that R&B/hip-hop star Usher Raymond made to police reporting a trespasser at his home has been released. The singer tells the 911 operator  that the trespasser is ringing his doorbell and sitting outside his front door.

In the call, obtained and posted by the website TMZ.com, the star also tells the operator he doesn't know the woman. "She rang my doorbell. … She’s just sitting there,” he says.

He's speaking just above a whisper, and tells the operator there are children in the house.

“I think she’s delusional,” said Usher of the trespasser. He tells the 911 operator he doesn't know how the woman gained access to his home because he lives in a gated community. 

“I think she’s a fan,” he said.

He explained the woman had come to his home earlier. People at the house assumed she knew someone and mistakenly let her in.

The suspect, Darshelle Jones-Rakestraw, was arrested, charged with trespassing and admitted to a hospital for psychiatric evaluation. She allegedly claimed she was Usher’s wife, TMZ reported.

Jones-Rakestraw reportedly first came to the star’s home on June 23, then returned a day later, when she was arrested.

Usher has reportedly obtained a restraining order against Jones-Rakestraw.

In a YouTube video posted Wednesday, Jones-Rakestraw said she was not a stalker and claimed Usher had defamed her character, TMZ reported. 

She also claimed that Usher had given her money and promised to help her music career.
