ALLENTOWN, PA — Four individuals were arrested Thursday morning after a multi-agency raid uncovered a stash of illegal firearms, narcotics, and cash inside an Allentown residence, according to a media release from city police.

At approximately 6 a.m., members of the Allentown Police Vice Unit, Emergency Response Team, and Patrol executed a search warrant at a home in the 900 block of Gordon Street. Inside, officers found multiple firearms — including a stolen handgun, two assault-style rifles, a bolt-action rifle, and a shotgun — along with firearm parts, magazines, ammunition, and a bulletproof vest.

Also discovered were quantities of cocaine, fentanyl, ecstasy, illegal packaging materials, a drug scale, and U.S. currency believed to be linked to drug trafficking.

Four suspects were arrested: Raymond Rodriguez, 25; Ricky Schlott, 43; Felix Luna, 35; and Arianna Abreu, 21 — all from Allentown. They face a range of charges including firearms offenses, drug trafficking, and conspiracy.

Rodriguez faces the most extensive list of charges, including four counts of persons not to possess firearms, multiple narcotics offenses, resisting arrest, and possession of instruments of crime. Schlott and Luna were also charged with weapons violations, while Abreu was charged primarily with narcotics-related offenses.
