TULSA, OK -- Tulsa police kept busy with two overnight incidents they suspect may have a connection – a robbery at What-A-Burger and a single-car rollover accident on Interstate 44.

The accident took place on eastbound I44 and 41st Street at about 12:30 a.m. When police arrived, they found a car upside down but no driver present. A witness told police that a woman left the accident scene, got into another car and left.

About 45 minutes later, police received a call about a robbery at the 41st and Hudson What-A-Burger. Two men, one armed with a shotgun, robbed the restaurant of an undisclosed amount of money. The men wore ski masks, sunglasses, dark hoodies and blue jeans.

Police suspect a woman in the restaurant at the time of the robbery may have driven the car that wrecked on I44.

She was taken in for questioning.

Police also suspect the robbery may be connected with another What-A-Burger robbery last week in Tulsa.
