The couple discovered the glass of their dining room window was broken.

Homeowner Wenjun Chen said her husband went outside to investigate.

"He thought it was a robin, a bird, so he walked back in and so no, it's something new," she told KING-TV. "I said what? And he said a drone!"

The drone had an affixed camera that was still recording.

Police said the drone was booked into evidence and investigators are seeking a warrant to review the camera footage and identify the owner.
