Deputies are investigating a report of an attempted robbery at an East Naples convenience store late Sunday.
A store employee told deputies that he was inside K-Square Food Mart, 11466 U.S. 41 E., shortly before midnight when he heard a noise outside the business near the front door, according to sheriff’s reports.

The men chased the employee, who ran back inside the store and locked the doors. The two men ran away, reports said.
Deputies searched the area on the ground and in the air, but were unsuccessful.
