Man Staying at DC's Trump Hotel Arrested After Weapons Found in Car

A man staying at the Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C  was arrested early Wednesday morning after police reportedly found weapons inside his vehicle.

Bryan Moles, 43, of Edinboro, Pennsylvania will be facing charges of carrying a weapon without a license, Fox 5 DC reports.

Police found in the trunk of Moles' car a Bushmaster rifle, a Glock pistol and ammunition. The vehicle was right outside of the hotel, which is located on Pennsylvania Avenue between the Capitol and White House.

The hotel, converted from the historic Old Post Office building, had its grand opening last fall while Donald Trump was in the middle of his presidential campaign against Hillary Clinton. After being inaugurated, Trump's first dinner out in Washington, D.C., was at the hotel.
