THANK GOD FOR HOUSEKEEPING.
If it wasn’t for this one woman, who knows what would have happened at MLB All-Star game.
This is insane.
Police feared a “Las Vegas style shooting” during the All-Star Game in Denver after arresting four people Friday night at the Maven Hotel, based on the number of weapons and ammunition investigators found at the scene.
Sources said police removed 16 long guns, body armor and more than 1,000 rounds of ammunition from a room on the eighth floor of the Maven Hotel that had a balcony. The sources said they feared the number of weapons, ammo, vantage point and large crowds could have resulted in a Las Vegas style shooting.
The sources said the weapons were discovered by a maid who alerted authorities. Based on the information provided by the employee, police executed a search warrant and found the guns, ammo, body armor, and a man inside the room on the eighth floor.
One of the people who were arrested posted on Facebook he was ready “to go out in a big way,”.
Their room on the 8th floor had a balcony that gave a direct line of sight to Coors Field. It could have been a massacre if they would have just started shooting into the crowd or at the players.
Here were the four people that were arrested and the charges.
- Richard Platt, 42, for investigation of possession of a weapon by a previous offender, possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute (two counts), and a warrant from another jurisdiction.
- Gabriel Rodriguez, 48, for investigation of possession of a weapon by a previous offender, possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute.
- Ricardo Rodriguez, 44, for investigation of possession of a weapon by a previous offender.
- Kanoelehua Serikawa, 43, for investigation of possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute, and a warrant from another jurisdiction.
At the moment no one knows what the motive or who these people are affiliated with, but hopefully we should find out soon.
We need way more gun control in this country, but sadly in some states, it is getting easier to be armed not harder.
This housekeeper needs a raise and an invite to the White House.
