CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WTVD) -- A comedian along with two other people were shot Saturday evening in Charlotte.

It happened in the parking lot of a shopping center just outside the Boost Mobile store. Entertainer Mario 'Grove Hero' Bradley posted on social media that he was shot in the spine and can't walk.

On Sunday, he still showed up in a wheelchair to a community event he sponsored at the same location of the shooting.

The Memphis, Tennessee native posted he was not going to let the shooting slow him down. He plans to continue his current tour.

Bradley has stops in several cities with no days off. He says he expected to be better and walking again within a couple of weeks.



Police are still working on the case, and no one is in custody.
