DETROIT _ Four people _ at least three of them teenagers found in the same room _ are dead from suspected drug overdoses after two separate incidents within 24 hours at an Auburn Hills hotel, police said.
Shortly after 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday, officers found the three dead teens inside a room at the Baymont Hotel on Opdyke, Auburn Hills police said. A fourth person was unconscious, treated at the scene and transported to an area hospital where he was listed in stable condition, police said.
The dead: a 17-year-old girl from Rochester Hills and two brothers, 18 and 19, also from Rochester hills.

Thursday afternoon, police responded to another call at the Baymont and found another male dead from a possible drug overdose. The police did not release any further details on that incident.
