A violent robbery in Cambridge has sent two people to hospital and regional police are now on the hunt for a pair of suspects.

It was on Wednesday morning, around 3, when police responded to a robbery call in the King Street East and Montrose Street North area of Cambridge.

Police say both of the victims in that robbery were transported to hospital with serious injuries.
