A hotel maid is being hailed for her role in preventing what police fear could have been a “Las Vegas style shooting” at the upcoming MLB All-Star Game in Denver, a report said Saturday.
The housekeeper tipped off cops after she found more than a dozen weapons and 1,000 rounds of ammunition at a hotel near Coors Field Friday, according to ABC7 Denver.
The alarming discovery was made inside a room on the eight floor of the Maven Hotel, just two blocks from the mile-high ballpark that is hosting the “Midsummer Classic” Tuesday, the station said.
Cops removed 16 long guns, body armor, and ammo from the room, which had a balcony overlooking Denver’s downtown, the outlet reported.
Three men and a woman were arrested and charged with weapons possessions in connection with the cache. Three of the suspects were previous offenders, and three of them also were charged with intent to distribute drugs, the report said.

Almost certainly.
Rodriguez, Rodriguez, and Serikawa.
It had to be a bunch of white supremacists...
AGAIN.
I see no good reason why the maid’s tip-off had to be mentioned. For all the cops know this was cartel business.
Colorado Ping ( Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the list.)
I agree. It doesn’t pass the smell or commonsense test.
This had drug dealer written all over it. Mass shooters are either nutters or religious zealots. They don’t sound like religious zealots and it would be unheard of to have a collection of psychopaths - three men and a woman - in the same room who have gathered to commit a ‘mass shooting.’
They were either dealing drugs/security for drug dealers or were poised to rip-off a drug deal.
Damn, wonder if I could buy the seized ammo? I bet it doesn’t get destroyed.
The snowball of gun violence had been building in Colorado.The gun grabbers think the California migrants to Colorado have a large enough foothold.
I have more than a few 1000 round "bricks" of 22 target ammo (after the last 4 ammo shortages/panics), so if I ever had the need to live out of a hotel room, I'd probably be charged with attempted Blitzkrieg....
“The housekeeper tipped off cops”
“That’s where the plan went wrong. She was supposed to tell the FBI. Then the massacre could have gone forward while they looked for right wing terrorists to fit up for it.”
The sad thing is that I could believe that the FBI would participate in this. Our respect for our gubmit institutions is long, long gone.
Nobody gives a damn about cartel business
To attract eyeballs, the story had to be spun to equate a shooting during the all star game with the Vegas shooting episode
The article is thus fake news
A dozen weapons and 1,000 rounds could be a morning at the range. A thousand rounds could fit in a shoebox.
That said, I think something else was up here.
“The FBI is gonna be so pissed at her!”
No kidding. Their plan was foiled. DRAT!
Sounds like it. The Hawaiian names are so pretty. The Japanese ... not so much. (I guess it depends on your personal perspective, though.)
So...what shady, covert ruse was deployed to enable getting this arsenal to the room?
Plumbing repair?
Guest with really large wardrobe?
Film crew?
Details! We need details...
By religious zealots, do you mean Islam?
I guess the deep state will go to plan B.
I used to carry guns into hotels all the time, in Canada no less. Nobody bothered me.
That’s usually who they are.
Don’t worry. The guns and the ammo will wind up in the private possession of law enforcement.
