Shots were fired at officers during an attempted robbery at a Conyers jewelry store Wednesday night, police said.

An alleged robber and an accomplice reportedly fired off a few rounds about 8 p.m. while running away from Kay Jewelers in a shopping center near the I-20 and Ga. 138 interchange, Conyers police Sgt. Kim Lucas told AJC.com.

The rounds missed their targets and no one was injured, she said.
