ALBANY, GA --  

Two brothers are in the Dougherty County Jail after trying to break into a drive-thru ATM.

Evan and Joshua Johnson were both arrested and charged with burglary and possession of marijuana.

Police responded to the Flint Community Bank on Meredyth Drive around 2:30 Sunday morning after the bank's alarm went off.

Police heard loud banging noises and found the suspects trying to pry their way into the machine.

They fled into the tree line around the Princeton Place and Pinnacle West apartments when they saw police, but officers caught up with both suspects.
