A shot was fired early Saturday morning when two masked men robbed a convenience store in Vancouver, according to the Vancouver Police Department. No one was injured.

The robbery occurred about 3:50 a.m. at the Star Mart convenience store at 2517 Andresen Road, a VPD bulletin said.

Two men entered the store wearing masks and demanded money from the register, one of them pointing a handgun at the clerk.

As the two robbers ran from the scene, one fell and the gun discharged, Vancouver police spokeswoman Kim Kapp said.
