Sheriff's spokeswoman Dena Erwin said Mercado's bail was set at $100,000. Erwin said the investigation into the owner of the explosives began Feb. 19 when members of a drug task force unit went to a home in the 3600 block of Sapphire Drive to serve a narcotics warrant.

The probe continued and led to the arrest of Mercado, she said. ... |
