He was also charged with second-degree murder in the same incident.The documents said Webber faced two counts of first-degree assault, one relating to an alleged assault on someone identified as Bradwick Webber and another relating to Wells. He was also charged with use of a firearm in the commission of a felony.According to the statement of charges filed by Det M Bigelow of the Charles County Sheriff’s Office, Webber picked up two witnesses from work in a vehicle, with Wells already in the front passenger seat, and an argument broke out between Webber and Wells while they were driving. The witnesses, identified in the charging documents as W1 and W2, told police that Webber pulled out a firearm and shot Wells twice in the head during the argument, the statement of charges said. It said Webber then pulled the vehicle over and asked the passengers to remove Wells from the car, which they refused.The two witnesses exited the vehicle and flagged down a police officer, the documents said, while Webber drove off with Wells still inside the car. According to the filing, around 12.41 am on March 23, a resident at 10115 Newport Church Road in Charlotte Hall discovered Wells’ body on the side of the road.The statement of charges said both W1 and W2 positively identified Webber as the shooter and Wells as the victim, which formed the basis for the murder and assault charges pending in Charles County District Court.Police said Webber’s vehicle was later located in Charlottesville, Virginia, and Webber was found at a hospital seeking treatment.Police did not explain how Webber was able to drive a car or fire a weapon.”It’s early in the investigation, but there’s no evidence to suggest anyone else was involved in the shooting and that he acted alone,” Diane Richardson of the Charles County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement.Videos posted to social media appeared to show Webber shooting rifles and 9mm handguns.Webber underwent quadruple amputation as a baby after a blood infection, according to reports, and he was a professional cornhole player in the American Cornhole League (ACL). The ACL has been on ESPN since 2016.”That’s one of the great things about our sport, how accessible it is, and how we like to say anyone can play, anyone can win, because if you want to put your mind to it, you want to put the time into practice, you can become competitive,” ACL commissioner Stacey Moore told Fox News Digital earlier this month. Moore was pushing for cornhole to become a sport in the Olympics. Go to Source
