MANCHESTER, Tenn. – Two loaded guns were found wrapped in a Pan-African flag inside a trash can at a Manchester hotel on Friday.

Police said a hotel worker found the guns inside a trash can around 9 a.m. and alerted police. Both guns had one round in the chamber and two in the clip.

Police called the ATF, who ran the serial number. According to the ATF and FBI, the way the gun was loaded is consistent with a professional hit.

At this point, authorities do not know who left the guns or an intended target.

Police, FBI, and the ATF are all investigating.
