Four men were arrested in a prostitution sting in Yavapai County.
On June 1, several law enforcement agencies conducted an operation targeting the buyers of underage and adult prostitutes to combat human trafficking in the Arizona county.
The four men allegedly responded to an Internet ad, made arrangements to meet the girls in a Yavapai County motel room, and then presented payment for sex acts.

The Department of Homeland Security; Partners Against Narcotics Trafficking; and the Prescott, Prescott Valley and Cottonwood police departments assisted with the operation.
