Police say three people were robbed at gunpoint while walking to their car from an Akron night club early Tuesday morning.

Akron police tell News Channel 5 two men approached the victims and demanded their belongings and car keys near the Interbelt Night Club on North Howard Street.

The suspects then stole the victim's car and crashed the vehicle after a short police chase near Blanding Avenue.

Two juvenile suspects were caught, but police are still looking for a third suspect who also jumped out of the stolen car. They believe he was run over by the car and may have injured his leg.

Another person was arrested after an SUV crashed into a parked truck near the same area the suspects crashed the stolen car. Police do not know if the driver of the SUV was involved in the same robbery or if it was an unrelated incident.
