ALBANY, GA (WALB) -  Elements of the Albany Dougherty Drug Unit, the gang task force, and state probation agents searched a house at 910 Riley Street in Albany Friday morning.

They confiscated several guns, and about half a pound of marijuana.

They arrested 32- year-old Derrick Green, his 29-year-old brother Frederick, and 23-year-old Erica Nixon.

They were all charged with probation violation, and possession of marijuana with intent to distribute.

Officers recovered three pistols, a sawed-off shotgun, an assault-style rifle, and two bullet-proof vests.

They also confiscated the marijuana, $6,100 in cash, and over a dozen stolen credit cards.

The investigation continues as police check to see if any of the weapons might have been used in Albany crimes.
