Pittsburgh police bust 2 women in motel prostitution sting
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Pittsburgh police say two women were offering prostitution services at two motels in an online ad.
Police arrested 44-year-old Sherry Lynn Lewis, of Pittsburgh, and 20-year-old Lisa Taylor, of North Charleston, South Carolina, after an officer answered their ad Saturday titled “Sunshine Back Again, Don’t Miss Out.”
Police say they had received complaints of prostitution at two motels and that an officer was instructed to drive to one of them when he called a number listed in the ad. He was then told to drive to the second hotel where Taylor allegedly offered to perform a sex act for $200.
Police say Lewis was arrested when she walked into the room a short time later. They say she was working in a room next door.
Online court records don’t list attorneys for the women.
