Shocking new video footage shows Dayton James Webber, a 27-year-old quadruple amputee and professional cornhole player, allegedly snorting from a $1 bill and then firing a semiautomatic rifle, despite not having any limbs. Webber is charged with gunning down his 27-year-old friend, Bradrick Michael Wells, when a late-night joyride turned violent on March 22.

Why it matters

The disturbing video provides a glimpse into the troubled life of Webber, who had previously gained attention for his impressive shooting skills despite his disability. The case raises questions about mental health, substance abuse, and access to firearms among those with physical challenges.

The details

In the video, a shirtless Webber is seen standing on his head as a friend holds a dollar bill under his nose. Seconds later, Webber grabs a nearby rifle and opens fire through an open window. Webber had previously posted videos on YouTube showcasing his ability to load and fire handguns using the stumps of his missing limbs. Authorities say Webber shot his friend Wells twice in the head while they were driving in Webber's Tesla SUV, then dumped the body several hours later.

  • The newly surfaced video footage was allegedly captured in La Plata, Maryland, last summer.
  • Webber was arrested and charged on March 22, 2026, after the shooting incident.
