Police are investigating after bullet casings were found outside of a Rocky Hill hotel on Tuesday evening.

Police responded to the area of the Holiday Inn Express at 20 Waterchase Drive at about 8:20 p.m. after receiving a 911 call reporting several shots had been fired, according to the Rocky Hill Police Department.

The first officers on the scene secured the area and later found two bullet shell casings in the parking lot of the hotel, police said.
