Police attempted to stop the teens for a registration violation in the area of Meade Village Road and Meade Village Circle around 9:15 p.m., when the teens fled toward Reece Road. The aviation unit was able to assist the police on the ground, and followed the teens as their vehicle continued toward the Hampton Inn in Annapolis.

The bag contained around two pounds of suspected marijuana, six suspected Adderall pills, three handguns, and nearly $2,000 in cash.

All five teens were arrested and charged accordingly.
