PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) - Police say multiple men were arrested in one week during an undercover sex trafficking operation.
The Portland Police Bureau said in a news release Friday that investigators posted ads on known sex trafficking websites from Jan. 9 to Jan. 13.
Police say the men contacted undercover officers to arrange payment for sexual acts.
Police say the men who responded to the ad and came to a Portland hotel were arrested on the misdemeanor charge of commercial sexual solicitation.
