Two men were arrested Thursday night for allegedly robbing a gas station in the 2700 block of West Colorado Avenue. 

A traffic stop for expired plates led to the arrests, Colorado Springs police said. 

One man, 59-year-old Sean Harvey, was arrested for a warrant unrelated to the alleged robbery. The other, 46-year-old Ronald Dyer, was arrested for his alleged involvement in the theft. Police also found methamphetamine on Harvey, according to CSPD. 

On Thursday at roughly 10:30 p.m., police were sent to the 2700 block of West Colorado Avenue responding to a robbery. Officers learned a suspect had threatened a clerk and stolen merchandise before leaving in a vehicle. 

Roughly 15 minutes later, police pulled over a car for expired plates. As part of the traffic stop, police learned the vehicle had been involved in the alleged robbery and arrested Harvey and Dyer.
