HOUSTON - A man has been arrested on multiple charges after police located a small arsenal of guns on the top floor of the Hyatt Regency on Louisiana Street downtown, Houston police said.
Police at the hotel called for backup around 1:30 a.m. Sunday after they attempted to arrest the man for being intoxicated and trespassing. When help arrived, police noticed ammunition laying around the man's hotel room, Lt. Gordon Macintosh with Houston police said
The man was arrested for unlawfully carrying a weapon and trespassing. When investigators looked into his room further, they located an AR-15, a shotgun, a handgun and lots of ammunition, Macintosh said.
The Hyatt is preparing its own New Years Eve celebration at the hotel with a 50,000 balloon drop at the stroke of midnight, its website said.
The man's white Chevrolet Silverado was located and towed to be searched and examined, Macintosh said.
Police are waiting to interview the man until he has sobered up, Macintosh said.
Investigators are working to learn more about this incident.
The Hyatt Regency Houston has released the following statement:
The safety and security of our guests and colleagues is our top priority, and consistent with the hotel?s prepared security plans, heightened measures are in place on New Year?s Eve. We are fully cooperating with authorities on an investigation, and further questions should be directed to the Houston Police Department.
A gun show at George R. Brown Convention Center was also held downtown Sunday. There is no information linking the man in this incident to the gun show as of Sunday afternoon.

Or a drunk guy in town for a 3 gun match.
Yep when I travel I carry that many guns, two pistols and a .300 blk AR pistol
Since the mass shooting didn't happen did they really thwart it?
Did a tree falling in the woods make any noise if no one was around to hear it fall?

does that include a deaf man????????????
If you invite someone into your business is that trespassing? If you walk into the mall are you trespassing?
If this guy gets a good lawyer, he will live in the penthouse suite. I guess it all comes down to if he was a hillary fan or not how it will play out.
Drunk and stupid yes. Terrorist with an arsenal no.
