Owasso police say they arrested a drug store robbery suspect thanks to a GPS device inside the prescription pill bottles he took.

Owasso Police say 25 year-old Grant Miller of Bartlesville told employees he had a gun and stole prescription pain medications from the CVS Pharmacy on 96th Street North at about 3 o'clock Monday morning. 

KOTV is reporting that Police credit a tracking device in the bottles which led officers to Miller's SUV and a chase began. The chase reportedly ended in Washington County on North 4000 Road near Vera when Miller got out and ran. Police arrested him after a struggle.

Police said they recovered the stolen medication and a .22-caliber handgun believed used in the robbery. 

They said the struggle injured both Miller and one of the officers, and both were treated at an Owasso hospital.

Police arrested Miller on complaints of Armed Robbery, Attempting to Elude and Driving Under the Influence.
