A prostitution sting on Friday in Highland Park and East Lake netted eight prostitutes and two pimps, including one who was renting out his wife.

The Chattanooga Police Department Special Investigations Unit conducted the vice operation jointly with officers from the Sector Two Patrol Division.

Detectives used undercover officers to pose as “johns” to ride the East Lake and Highland Park areas to be solicited for sex for money from suspected street prostitutes.

The women were arrested for prostitution, narcotics, drug paraphernalia and outstanding arrest warrants and the two men for promoting prostitution.

One of those men, Charlton Kyle, was promoting his wife, Jennifer Kyle, for prostitution, police said.

One of the females, Alice Langston, was out on bond for prostitution when she was arrested on this operation.
