Possible Mass Casualty Incident Foiled By Housekeeping

[SimplySpaztastic]

So, yesterday Denver hosted the All Stars 2021 MLB Game at Coors Field.

On Friday, 4 people- 3 men and 1 woman were arrested after a housekeeper at The Maven hotel downtown (directly across from coors field) discovered over a dozen guns in one of the rooms. She told her supervisor, who then called police.

The Denver Police Department feared another "Las Vegas-style shooting" and served a search warrant on the 2 hotel rooms rented by the suspect. Suspect Ricardo Rodriguez rented 2 rooms, and was scheduled to check out on Friday. Friday morning he requested a longer stay AND a room with a balcony view. Police moved in quick. They found over a dozen firearms, drugs and mad ammo. They also found tactical gear and ballistic vests in the cars.

Ricardo Rodriguez, 44; Gabriel Rodriguez, 48; Richard Platt, 42; and Knoelehua Serikawa, 43, were all arrested and held on suspicion of weapons or drug offenses, or warrants from outside Denver.
I will most definitely be following this.

Suspect requested longer stay, room with balcony at Maven Hotel day of arrests, documents say

The man whom prosecutors believe was the “leader” of the group of four people arrested Friday at the Maven Hotel on suspicion of weapons and drug offenses was supposed to check out of the two rooms he rented on Friday, but asked to stay for longer and requested a room with a balcony.

What a spooky situation. There was a very strong indication that they were planning a Las Vegas-style massacre at Coors Field. Or, if not, then they were too stupid to prevent anyone else to reasonable conclude and infer such. Why bring so many guns to a hotel room anyways? A gun salesman, or a person attending a gun convention, may be able to do that just fine. But these people did not appear to have an established reason for such a collection in their lodging, nor did they give anyone else reasonable expectation or notification of such.

The housekeeper did a very good thing, and probably saved many lives.

They should've put out the Do Not Disturb sign.
