Police and deputies set up an active perimeter and searched for the suspects using air and K9 units.

Two men were caught by police, and the second two suspects were located when they walked into a local business and asked to use a phone. 

Officers from the Alpharetta Department of Public Safety said the business owner recognized the suspects from the photo released on social media, and he held the two men at gunpoint until law enforcement arrived.
