Investigators say they obtained a search warrant, leading to the recovery of the weapons.

The cache included nine replica guns, ammunition, swords, hatchets, bear spray and a stun baton, according to police.

The discovery comes after police say they found a variety of axes and knives in a tent in Oppenheimer Park on Wednesday, and after a large trove of guns and knives were found in a tent on Feb. 27.
