Police suspected the man was behind the robbery of a taxi driver in a car park on nearby Church Street five minutes earlier and the robbery of a service station about 10 minutes before that.
They later confirmed they weren't looking for any other suspects in relation to the robberies.
The road fatality came after a woman died following a crash in Jimboomba about 10.30pm on Wednesday.
Police said the car, driven by a woman in her 20s, hit a tree after leaving the Mount Lindesay Highway.
