NBC Washington reported:

A professional cornhole player who’s also a quadruple amputee is facing murder charges after a deadly shooting in Charles County, Maryland, over the weekend.

Dayton James Webber, 27, was behind the wheel of a car in La Plata when he allegedly shot and killed a friend during an argument Sunday night before dumping the victim’s body and fleeing to Virginia, authorities say.

The Charles County Sheriff’s Office confirmed to News4 the suspect is professional cornhole player Dayton Webber.

Since he was 10 months old, he’s been a quadruple amputee with a passion for sports.

Webber has been well-known for his athletic accomplishments. In fact, News4 profiled him when he was 11 years old, after hearing how his physical disability had not gotten in the way of his desire to wrestle, play video games, ride dirt bikes and play football.

As an adult, Webber became a champion cornhole player. In 2023, he wrote an essay for NBC’s TODAY, sharing what it took to go from an amateur to professional competitor.

Video posted to X shows Webber competing in cornhole matches.
