Dobson shot Wicomico Sheriff's Deputy Thomas Funk Feb. 29, 2012, while Funk was one of eight officers working as a U.S. Marshal's task force to serve warrants in the region. Dobson had a warrant pending for multiple charges including first-degree assault and arson threat, which have since been placed on the stet docket of Dorchester County Circuit Court, where they could be tried one day.
The morning of the shooting, Dobson was in a home on Hubbard Street. After he shot Funk in the arm, he and other officers traded gunfire before he surrendered after a standoff of several hours.
