A Berkeley woman who was working from home Friday interrupted two burglars breaking in, scaring them off before they could take anything.

The burglars, who claimed to be cleaners at the wrong house, have been linked by residents to at least two other recent incidents — a home burglary in San Jose and a break-in attempt in El Cerrito.

The pair may be targeting Asian households. Police are investigating.

Here's what we know.
