A Maryland man who made history as the first quadruple amputee to compete in the professional televised American Cornhole League has been arrested on suspicion of shooting and killing a passenger in his car during an argument.
Dayton Webber – who became a champion cornhole player after losing his limbs and nearly dying from a bacterial infection in his infancy – faces murder charges in connection with the death of Bradrick Wells, authorities said on Monday.
According to a statement from investigators with the sheriff’s office of Charles county in suburban Baltimore, Webber was driving his car with Wells as his front-seat passenger at about 10.25pm on Sunday when the pair began arguing in front of others who were in the vehicle.
Webber, 27, then allegedly shot Wells to death, pulled over in the community of La Plata, and asked the other passengers to help him remove the dead man from the car, the sheriff’s office said. The others refused, got out of the car and fled the scene while Webber drove away with the body of Wells, also 27, the agency added.
That is quite the headline
I had to read it 3 times to figure out what the hell it meant. :p
Having watched the video of him shooting a gun, this still makes no sense. My brain cannot wrap itself around how any of this works. I’m looking for cracks, any indication this is just some AI-fuel mass hallucination fever-dream, but I can’t find it and that is somehow worse.
Yeah, I saw that and my first thought how the fuck you gonna let that man draw down on you? How did you not see it coming? Did he just sit there watching this guy fumble fingerless with a gun until he could get the safety off and pointed at him? Did he want to die?
Asked whether the sheriff’s office suspected Wells was shot dead with a gun that had equipment adapting it for use by someone without hands, an agency spokesperson said that was unknown.
Yeah duh because its probably complete bullshit and he is being framed.See reply at the bottom

Too many witnesses refutes your ‘guess’.
Read the summary or the article next time.
The mystery has been solved fyi, comment at the bottom of the thread posted an msn article with a video.

The name for the very common game “cornhole” has always made me laugh, since it’s the common name. I love how there are some efforts to call it “bean bag toss”. Yeah, nope, not really seeing much traction there. The only thing funnier to my inner 10 year old would be if there was a legit game called bum darts.
And yes, watching shows like “Blown Away” got plenty of chuckles when they keep referred to “the glory hole”.
We always called it “bags”
In Canada cornhole means something completely different, and every time I see it mentioned on Lemmy it makes me have to stop and translate to American.
