Houston police arrested an intoxicated man with a small cache of weapons in his hotel room early Sunday, officials said. Police responded to a call for “urgent” backup from an officer at the Hyatt Regency hotel around 1:30 a.m. Sunday, an officer at the Houston Police Department Command Center told HuffPost. The officer initially attempted to arrest the “drunk and belligerent” man for trespassing, but requested help from other officers after discovering ammunition in his hotel room, Lt. Gordon MacIntosh told the Houston Chronicle. Officers then “located multiple firearms,” the HPD command center officer told HuffPost. The weapons include an AR-15, a shotgun and a handgun, according to local NBC affiliate KPRC.
