Dayton Webber’s former playing partner says: ‘Dayton has a great family, and I care about that family. Yet obviously, there is somebody [who] died’
The former doubles partner of a professional, championship-winning cornhole player who had his four limbs amputated in his infancy and is now accused of a deadly shooting says he was shocked to learn about the case, calling it an instance of at least two families being torn apart in one fell swoop.
“I’ve been mad, sad – it sucks,” Mike Hoffman said of his past cornhole teammate Dayton Webber during a telephone interview on Tuesday.
Hoffman’s comments came amid a national media frenzy surrounding the circumstances of Webber’s arrest on suspicion of shooting and killing a passenger in his car during an argument in southern Maryland on Sunday.
The 51-year-old Hoffman said he was stunned at the accusations against Webber, 27, like many around him were.
