A newly surfaced video shows a quadruple amputee murder suspect scaling a ladder with a rifle on his back.
Footage showing 27-year-old Dayton James Webber, a professional cornhole player of La Plata, Maryland, climbing a ladder toward what appears to be an elevated hunting blind with a rifle strapped to his back, has surfaced online in light of his arrest.
In the video, Webber, dressed in camouflage and an orange vest, hooks his elbows around the steps and pulls himself up one at a time.
Another video shows him staring down the barrel of a rifle before firing a shot. Both videos were posted in February 2024.
TMZ notes that Webber was arrested on Sunday (March 22) after witnesses told police he shot and killed a passenger in his car in Maryland.
Officers said witnesses were in the backseat when Webber got into an argument with the front-seat passenger and then pulled a gun and fatally shot him.
The alleged victim, Bradrick Michael Wells, 27, was found in a nearby yard and pronounced dead at the scene.
Webber was tracked to a Virginia hospital and arrested, and he is set to be extradited to Maryland to face first and second-degree murder charges.
As noted by a 2010 interview with ESPN, Webber was 10 months old when his arms and legs were amputated due to a bacterial infection.
“They said we would need a wheelchair ramp, but Dayton learned to walk in no time,” his father, Mike, said at the time. “We didn't know how he would do things, but we just figured he would. That's what he's always done.”
Webber went on to compete in sports like football and wrestling.
