MILWAUKEE -- Milwaukee Police are investigating a crash that involved one of their squad cars on the city's north side.

It happened around 8:45 p.m. on Friday near N. 13th Street and W. Capitol Drive.

Milwaukee police say their officers were in pursuit of a car taken in an earlier armed robbery when a pickup truck failed to yield the right-of-way and the squad car crashed into it.  

The two officers inside the squad car suffered non-life threatening injuries and were treated and released from a local hospital.  

The driver of the pickup truck was not injured, stayed on scene, and will be cited for failure to yield.  

Police are still seeking the stolen car from the initial armed robbery.
