Westover Man Charged with Adult Care Center Arson
Maryland Fire Marshals have charged a Westover man with setting an adult day care center in Marion on fire.
Authorities say 41-year-old Michael Krome started a fire at the Somerset Community Services Building Tuesday morning. He was arrested Tuesday at his home.
Investigators say he’s a client at the center but they don’t know why he started the fire. There was minimal damage to the building and no one was injured in the fire.
In February, Krome was charged with setting the Rosewood Center for people with developmental disabilities in Owings Mills on fire. Authorities also don’t have a motive for that fire.
