The robbery happened around 1:52 p.m. at the Red Roof Inn in the 2100 block of Emmorton Park Road in Edgewood. The sheriff's office said five adults and a minor reported being robbed at gunpoint in a room.

The alleged robbers knocked on the room's door and chatted with the victims before showing a gun and demanding their belongings, officials said.

Police later found the suspects in a residential area about three miles from the hotel.

Walker was released on his own recognizance; Parson and Hilton were held without bond, the sheriff's office said.
