A man who was "freed" last week by Mexican soldiers who found him bound inside a Juárez stash house has been arrested after an investigation found he was allegedly the owner the contraband, federal officials said.

Soldiers, acting on a tip about a kidnapping, raided the home on the 5200 block of Lago Superior where they found Andres Barraza Lopez handcuffed with his eyes covered and asking for help.

Troops seized 583 pounds of marijuana, a Hummer, a Ford Lobo pickup and a Chevrolet Trail Blazer containing two rocket launchers, three AK-47s and three other firearms.
