In a shocking turn of events, Dayton James Webber, a 27-year-old quadruple amputee, was arrested and charged with first-degree murder and second-degree murder following a fatal shooting incident in La Plata, Maryland on March 22, 2026. The incident occurred around 10:25 p.m. when Webber allegedly shot Bradrick Michael Wells, also 27, during an argument.

Witnesses report that Webber was driving a vehicle when the confrontation escalated, leading to the shooting. After the incident, Webber reportedly asked two passengers to assist in pulling Wells from the car, but they refused and instead flagged down police officers. This decision ultimately led to the discovery of Wells, who was pronounced dead at the scene after being found in a yard nearly two hours later.

Webber fled the scene with the victim still in the vehicle, raising questions about his actions following the shooting. He was later apprehended in Albemarle County, Virginia, after seeking medical treatment for an undisclosed issue at a nearby hospital.

Notably, Webber is recognized as the first quadruple amputee to compete in the American Cornhole League. He began his professional cornhole career in 2021 and was named the best cornhole player in Maryland in 2020. Webber lost all four of his limbs at just 10 months old due to a severe bacterial infection, which his medical team initially deemed life-threatening, giving him only a 3 percent chance of survival.

The American Cornhole League has acknowledged the allegations against Webber but has refrained from commenting on the ongoing legal situation, stating, “We respect the judicial process and will not comment on specific allegations or details while proceedings are ongoing.” Meanwhile, it remains unclear whether Webber has legal representation at this time.

Details remain unconfirmed regarding whether Webber used adaptive equipment to operate the firearm due to his amputations. The incident has raised significant public interest, given Webber’s unique background and his achievements in the cornhole community.

As the investigation unfolds, the community is left reeling from the implications of this tragic event. Official statements and first reactions from those close to the situation are expected as more information becomes available.
