Four people are facing charges after a large amount of drugs and a gun were found at an upscale hotel in Philadelphia.
Police were called to the Hilton Hotel at Penn’s Landing about 6:10 p.m. Friday after an employee spotted suspicious items in one of the rooms.
Investigators say inside the room, in plain view, were a loaded handgun, and a large amount of cocaine, approximately 1 kilogram.
A short time later, police say the registered hotel room guest and three others arrived back at the hotel in a car and were encountered by officers.
They were taken into custody without incident.
They face charges of Manufacturing with the Intent to Deliver, Violation of Uniform Firearm Act and related offenses.
The incident remains under investigation.
