Atlanta, GA -- A Buckhead jewelry store employee who shot and killed a suspected robber last week will not face any charges.

Police said the incident took place on July 6 at Cachet Fine Jewelry when a man identified as Michael Robbins, 20, entered the store around 2:30 pm armed with a handgun. The employee -- who is the son of the store owner -- told police he shot Robbins in self-defense.

Robbins was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital where he later died.
