Pittsburgh police said a man ran away after trying to rob a convenience store in Hazelwood -- but maybe not before the store clerk got a good shot at him.

The woman working overnight at S&R Market on Second Avenue pulled out a gun and started shooting at the intruder, police said.

Some blood outside suggests the clerk hit her mark, police said.

It's unclear whether the suspect had a weapon. Police said he did not get away with any money.

Police are still investigating. No arrests have been made.
