Smash! Smash! 

In the wee hours Tuesday, three would-be robbers tried to smash into a Little Caesars Pizza twice — perhaps in the tradition of "Pizza! Pizza!" — using a stolen, 2005 GMC Yukon.

The first time they rammed into the building in the 19100 block of Kelly Road in Detroit, they hit a wall but didn't bust through, police said. Then, they tried smashing into a window, which got them in.

Once inside, however, they didn't find anything to steal and ran away.

Police said they were alerted to the break-in about 4 a.m.

Detectives plan to use the eatery's security video to help identify the three burglars.
