Vancouver police were called Sunday morning to a Dunbar home believed to be owned by Huawei CFO Meng Wanzhou’s husband.
The property on West 28th Avenue is one of two in the city that Meng and her husband Xiaozong Liu own in Vancouver, according to an affidavit filed in B.C. Supreme Court.
According to police, investigators received a 911 call about a home being broken into on West 28th Avenue near Crown Street around 5:30 a.m. Pacific time.
Police said the suspects were confronted by someone in the home and fled.

The home was purchased in 2008 for $2.7 million, and has since doubled in value.
