Officers responded to drug violations at Relax Inn on Serral Drive Monday around midnight.
While patrolling the parking lot an officer noticed spray paint on a vehicle and ran the tag, they confirmed the tag was registered to another vehicle but was not stolen. According to the report, officers requested a K9 to the scene due to drug activity that occurs at the hotel. K9 Pasa gave a positive alert on the spray painted vehicle.
Video footage was requested for the parking lot and officers saw a male and female exit the car and go into a hotel room.
