3 Suspected Pimps Among Arrested in Prostitution Sting: News Nearby

Police in Dunwoody, with the assistance of Gwinnett County PD and the FBI, arrested several suspects during an undercover prostitution sting last week.

Dunwoody PD said in a news release the operation was conducted Sept. 3 at a cooperating hotel within the city limits.

Local police worked in conjunction with the Gwinnett Police Department Vice Unit and FBI Metro Atlanta Child Exploitation (MATCH) Task Force and made the following arrests (names of suspects were not released):

• 3 were arrested for pimping
• 7 were arrested for prostitution
• 1 was arrested for escorting without a permit
