The Johnson City Police Department says that the two men, 20-year-old Matthew Austin Woodyard and 26-year-old Antonio Eduardo Santos, entered a home in the 100 block of Faith Circle in masks while armed, stole a victim's property and hit a dog in the face with a machete. The dog was taken to a local animal hospital and was treated for its injuries.
