Houston Police announced Friday that charges have been filed against 26 suspects arrested in a two month-long prostitution initiative on the southeast side.

The arrests took place from March to May.

"In an effort to decrease prostitution demand, investigators in the Houston Police Department Vice Division, along with officers from the HPD Southeast Patrol Differential Response Team (DRT), conducted several initiatives near the 2400 block of Gould near Stratton and in the 3200 block of Telephone Road in response to citizen complaints regarding a high level of prostitution in the area," HPD stated.
