Answer: Because she heard her husband enter the apartment, she's either acknowledging his presence or trying to call out to him before referring to the one-armed man by saying, "He's trying to kill me."
Answer: She said "Richard, he's trying to kill me" refering to the one armed man. It sounded like "Richard is trying to kill me".

But why would she call 911 and then say, "Richard, he's trying to kill me?" She called the emergency, not her husband's cellphone.
