Ohio

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.
