Glendale police go online, make prostitution arrests

Glendale police made two recent arrests for prostitution at hotels on Port Washington Road after going online to set up the meetings.

According to the police report:

A 43-year-old woman, possibly from Texas, was arrested for prostitution, possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia after police investigated a website and set up "a date" at the Baymont Inn, 5485 N. Port Washington Road, at 10:40 p.m. June 10.

The woman had 4 grams of marijuana, pipes with residue and $695 cash. The woman said she was in the area working for a traveling sales group and her co-workers left but she stayed and has done "exceptionally well as a prostitute in Glendale with about 15 customers a day."

In the second incident, a 20-year-old Milwaukee woman was arrested for prostitution after police investigated a website and set up "a date" with her at the Radisson Hotel, 7065 N. Port Washington Road, at 9:30 p.m. June 6.

The woman arrived in a red Jaguar and later told police she wasn't going "to do anything for money" and was "confused why she was arrested."

The woman, who had condoms issued from a Florida women's shelter, had other prostitution arrests, some in Florida.
