Prostitution sting nabs 15 in Vancouver

Vancouver Police caught 15 men in an organized vice sting targeting customers of prostitution Friday afternoon.

Detectives placed an ad on the website Backpage.com in the escorts section offering sexual services.

An undercover detective posed as the prostitute, directing "johns" to a hotel near the Vancouver mall where they took the men into custody.

Authorities started the sting around noon and ended it after 9 p.m. resulting in the arrest of 15 suspects who were charged with attempting to patronize a prostitute. All were taken to the Clark County Jail where they were cited and released.

    I can't imagine such a thing ever happening in the real Vancouver.

    Did anybody read the names of the guys arrested? There is a name on the list that made me burst out into laughter.

    Daniel C. Quattlebaum..........QUATTLEBAUM!! Pronounce it out loud.....without laughing. Impossible for me to do.

    What a handle to carry through life.

    I thought something was up when the policemen didn't look like mounties, and none of the names were Sikh, Pakistan, Indian, Sri Lanka, Chinese, etc.

    Lol, your fake news story almost had me!
