Alex Trebek recounted his dramatic encounter with a burglar during a “Today Show” interview this morning.

“I woke up and saw a figure in our hotel bedroom, and I thought I was dreaming,” says the “Jeopardy!” host.

“I realized immediately that someone had been in the room, and I put on my underwear and ran down the hall to see if I could find her.”

When Trebek caught up with the culprit, Lucinda Moyers, she insisted she hadn’t been in his room but was “visiting friends.”

She was later arrested by San Francisco police.

Trebek, meanwhile, injured his Achilles tendon in the fracas, but will be OK.
