SUNDAY, NOV. 25, AT 8:30 A.M. Police responded to the 1100 block of Second Street — The Huntley Hotel — regarding a report of two suspects staying there illegally. When officers arrived, they spoke with hotel employees who said the two suspects had checked into the hotel a day earlier using a credit card. When the employees checked the card the next day, they discovered that the two suspects were not authorized to use it. Officers went to the suspects’ room and placed the two under arrest. Officers searched the suspects and found a small amount of what appeared to be methamphetamine. The two were booked for possession and for grand theft. They were identified as Mathew David Conrad, 34, and Cassandra Conway, 24, of Beverly Hills. Both were on probation so no bail was set, police said.
