Amputee Cornhole Star Charged with Murder

0:00It's March 26th. This is Durham News Today, powered by AI. I'm Cory with the story. A professional cornhole player who lost all four limbs has waved extradition from Virginia to face first-degree murder charges in Maryland, 27-year-old Dayton-Jane's Weber agreed to the transfer during a court hearing this week. The shooting happened Sunday night in Charles County, Maryland. Officials say Weber pulled over after killing a front seat passenger during an argument inside the vehicle he was driving. Weber built an inspiring career in cornhole despite his amputations, competing at a high level. That background makes the allegations, especially shocking to many in the sports community. Meanwhile, after the incident, back seat passengers refused his request for help and called police. Detectives later found Weber at a hospital in Charlottesville, Virginia, treating a medical issue, leading to his arrest as a fugitive. He stayed calm in a green jumpsuit during the brief video hearing and now awaits transport to Maryland where prosecutors will move forward with the case.
