Omaha Police are looking for the man who fired a gun, injuring a clerk at the gas station he was trying to rob.

The attempted robbery happened at the Mega Saver on 24th Street around 8 p.m. on Wednesday, March 16.

The gas station clerk told police the suspect fired about four to six times, leaving two bullet holes in a wall and damaging the two glass doors of a cooler and the glass on a display case. 

The clerk was treated at the scene for a minor graze wound, according to police.

Police say the suspect didn't get any money, but is believed to have committed a second robbery about two hours later at a different gas station.

The Kwik Shop on 72nd Street, near Sorensen Parkway, was robbed around 10 p.m.
