Dayton Webber, a quadruple amputee who became a professional cornhole player and drew national attention, shot and killed his longtime friend Brad Wells on March 22 in southern Maryland. The 27-year-old fired two shots into Wells' head while driving a white Tesla Model X during an argument over drugs, guns, and a woman. Wells' body was later found in a front yard about 10 miles from the scene.

Webber was arrested after stopping at an emergency room in Charlottesville, Virginia, where he called his lawyer. A handgun matching the murder weapon was recovered at a nearby gas station. He faces first-degree murder charges carrying a potential life sentence. His attorneys argued self-defense, but prosecutors confirmed Webber fired the shots. The case briefly went viral, with crude jokes about his disability circulating before public attention faded.

Webber lost all four limbs before his first birthday after a severe infection led to meningitis and sepsis. He rose to No. 87 in the American Cornhole League's professional doubles rankings and listed a $100,000 net income last year in court documents. Once an inspiring figure covered by ESPN and NBC, he now awaits trial on murder charges — the tragic reality that has eclipsed his remarkable story.
