Secaucus police responded to the Red Roof Inn on reports of drug activity found Frank Morrow acting suspiciously around 10:45 p.m. Wednesday, Chief Dennis Miller said.
An inquiry turned up a large knife and more than an ounce of methamphetamine, Miller said.
Morrow was arrested on several drug and weapon charges, and lodged in the Hudson County Jail pending a court appearance.
“As the Chief of Police, I am committed to listening to citizen complaints and having them proactively investigated," Miller said.
"Transient patrons who come to some of our local hotels to commit nefarious acts will continue to be targeted.”
