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.
