The clerk at a Virginia 7-Eleven shot and killed a man during a late-night attempted robbery at the convenience store, police said Monday. 

The Norfolk Police Department received a report of a person shot at the 7-Eleven store on Colley Avenue around midnight Monday. Officers responded to find 28-year-old Javier Garcia suffering from a "life-threatening" gunshot wound after what investigators determined was a botched robbery attempt at the store, police said. 

Garcia, who was a Norfolk resident, was rushed to an area hospital, but could not be saved. Additional details regarding the circumstances were not immediately available.
