WAYNESVILLE, N.C. (AP) - Authorities have arrested an Episcopal
priest and six other men as part of a three-month undercover sting
centered in Haywood County.
Waynesville police say the seven face charges of exposure and
sex solicitation in two city park restrooms.
Investigators say Operation Summer Heat has also resulted in the
arrests of five other men and a woman on charges of prostitution,
participating in prostitution of a minor and soliciting
prostitution.
Police say the arrests began in June after the suspects
responded to an ad on the Craigslist Web site.
Parents had complained to police about activity at park
restrooms near a playground and picnic area. Police also got a tip
about offers for sex in Waynesville on the Craigslist Web site.
