Mr. Gruhler was arrested, along with Samuel White, 39, of Palatka, Florida, who was at the residence at the time of the search.

Gruhler was charged with trafficking in methamphetamine, possession of heroin with intent to sell, possession of marijuana with intent to sell, possession of drug equipment, and keeping a residence or vehicle for the purpose of selling drugs, with his bond set at $206,000.
