Fairfield police have arrested a man and two juveniles in connection with an armed robbery at the Chipotle Grille, at 340 Grasmere Ave., in Fairfield.
At 10:39 p.m. on Sunday, a Chipotle employee called 911 from the restaurant bathroom to report the robbery after closing hours.
Police said two handguns were used in the robbery, cash was taken and the robbers fled out the back door of the restaurant.
As officers responded, they spotted a vehicle, with the headlights turned off, speed away from Chipotle and authorities pursued it.
One officer tried to stop the car on Commerce Drive, but ended the chase because the getaway car was speeding and driving recklessly, police said.
The car continued into Bridgeport, where it struck an unoccupied vehicle on State Street Extension and flipped over onto the roof.
From here, it became a foot chase.
