Dundalk Man Facing Arson Charges After Towson Shop Set Ablaze

BALTIMORE COUNTY, MD — Robert Dixon, a 38-year-old Dundalk man, is facing several charges after he was tied to a Towson vintage shop that was set on fire.

Court records show Dixon was charged with second-degree arson, first-degree malicious burning and malicious destruction of property valued at $1,000 or more.

Citing the Baltimore County Police, WBAL reported the July 8 fire came a day after one of the store owners engaged in a verbal confrontation with Dixon.

Trevor Brake, who co-owns Rosebud Retro, said the shop lost "around 20% or 25%" of its inventory between the fire and the activation of the sprinkler system.

Dixon remains held without bond.

His next court appearance is scheduled for Aug. 7.
