COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO. -- Colorado Springs Police officers arrested a man at a hotel while searching for another Sunday night.

Officers were looking for Isaac Montoya, a wanted man, at the American Inn on Aeroplaza Drive around 10:01 p.m. when they learned several other people may be armed in the room.

When they got there, they arrested 20-year-old Aristeo Rocho outside the suspected room for having a gun, a large amount of cash and drugs. He will be charged with several weapons and narcotics violations.

Officers searched the room and found evidence of illegal drug dealing. Montoya was not in the room.
