A police chase and crash stopped two robbers as they fled the scene of their crime early Wednesday morning.

The men robbed the Phillips 66 Zipz convenience store at 140th and I-49 around 2 a.m.

The clerks called 911. Grandview police soon located the suspects' silver SUV and gave chase down I-49.

The suspects exited on Blue Ridge Boulevard going east when the slick roads made them lose control. They crashed and knocked over a light pole in a median at the intersection.

Both were taken to the hospital with minor injuries.

It's unclear how much they took from the store.

No one else was hurt.
