COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) -- A party with hundreds of people in the South Hilltop neighborhood ended when police closed it for code violations, confiscating weapons and ammunition.

The afterhours club in the 700 block of Harrisburg Pike was full of people when Columbus police, the Franklin County Sheriff's Office, and the Franklin Township police tried to close it for code violations at 3 a.m. Saturday.

"In the process, officers dealt with several hostile individuals and recovered multiple handguns including two weapons with extended mags, a hard armor plate carrier, an AR-15, and several mags with armor piercing ammunition," the sheriff's department said in a media release.
