The two brothers were shot about 3 p.m. Drugs were found in their house, Ware said.

Both brothers survived the shooting, but police haven't been to identify the robber yet because the victims have been in surgery and recovering Tuesday evening, Ware said.

Neighbors, however, spotted the brothers with the gunman earlier in the day.

Ware was confident they would get the robber identified

"We haven't had an opportunity to interview our victims," Ware said. "But they know the suspect."
