WALDO, Wis. (AP) — Authorities say a Wisconsin man on parole for possessing explosives may face more charges after an explosion at his home this weekend. The Sheboygan County Sheriff’s Office says deputies were called about an explosion at the home in Waldo late Saturday afternoon. Officers recognized the home belonged to a man convicted in a 2008 case of possessing explosive devices. Deputies found broken glass and several blown-out windows. The man was picking up the glass and said it was from a welding accident. Chemicals used to make fireworks and explosives were found in the home. The man was taken into custody for violating his parole. The Milwaukee County bomb squad was called in. Neighbors were asked to evacuate Sunday as investigators removed chemicals from the site.
