<p><strong>FORT LAUDERDALE</strong> — A tense 45-minute standoff ended peacefully when SWAT team members convinced homeowner Darren Mills, 41, that the &#8220;armed intruder&#8221; in his house was actually his own reflection.</p> <p>Mills had recently purchased a full-length mirror from IKEA but forgot about it after assembling it drunk. He spent three hours hiding in his bathtub, periodically peeking out and calling 911 with updates about the &#8220;extremely handsome but dangerous&#8221; intruder who was &#8220;mimicking his every move.&#8221;</p> <p>&#8220;Every time I moved, he moved,&#8221; Mills told officers. &#8220;It was terrifying. Also, he had excellent taste in pajamas.&#8221;</p> <p>The 911 dispatcher became suspicious when Mills described the intruder as &#8220;doing exactly what I&#8217;m doing at the exact same time&#8221; but couldn&#8217;t convince him it was a mirror over the phone.</p> <p>SWAT team members arrived and successfully de-escalated the situation by having Mills approach the mirror while they shined flashlights at it from different angles. Mills was reportedly &#8220;embarrassed but relieved&#8221; and offered officers beer as an apology.</p> <p>No charges were filed. The responding officers did submit a commendation for the 911 dispatcher who remained patient throughout the ordeal.</p>
