House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was briefly evacuated from her downtown Denver hotel when a man carrying two hunting rifles and two pistols tried to check in to the hotel.

Secret Service spokesman Malcolm Wiley says 29-year-old Joseph Calanchini of Wyoming faces a charge of unlawful carrying of a weapon after police officers at the Sheraton hotel noticed him carrying a rifle-type case while checking in yesterday.

Pelosi and other guests briefly evacuated the hotel but were never in danger.

Calanchini remained at Denver City Jail on $10,000 bond.
