Bragg soldier shot, stabbed in carjacking

Fayetteville Police Department cruiser (generic)

A Fort Bragg soldier was shot and stabbed Tuesday night as three men and a woman stole his SUV, Fayetteville police said Wednesday.

Bradley Burkley, 36, gave a woman a ride to Schmidt Street in the Bonnie Doone neighborhood at about 8 p.m. Tuesday. When he stopped to let her out, she grabbed the keys out of the ignition and three men approached and demanded his wallet, police said.

Burkley threw the wallet on the ground, and one of the men shot him in the shoulder while a second stabbed him in the back, police said.

Burkley ran to a business on Bragg Boulevard, where someone called 911. He was taken to Cape Fear Valley Medical Center for treatment of non-life-threatening wounds, police said.

The men and woman fled in Burkley's silver 2006 Honda CRV, police said. The vehicle has a Florida license, 834TSQ.

Anyone with information about the case is asked to call the Fayetteville Police Department.

This soldier puts his life on the line to protect US citizens and this is what he gets? They are an embarassment to the human race.

OMG, this is what one gets for being a GOOD SAMARITAN!! This is why I don't give people rides!! I hope he fully recovers and I hope they find the individuals before they pull this SCAM on someone else!! Also, they had his wallet so... what was the reason(s) for stabbing and shooting him?!!

Bonnie Doon - Airborne, there was your first clue .....

It was dark... He was giving a famale a ride.. They were in Bonnie Doone.. I'm sorry the young man was injured and I sure hope he makes a full recovery but something tells me that he wasn't so innocent. Lots of prostotution goes on in that area. Sounds like she just sprung the perfect trap.

This 3-some needs NO PLEA deal but some serious time, and the woman needs as much as the men, but that won't happen.
