BLOOMINGTON, Ill. (WAND) - The Bloomington Police Department says three people were arrested and a teenage girl was taken into protective custody in connection with a prostitution investigation.
Bloomington police say the online investigation into prostitution resulted in the arrests of Dvaunte Dawson, 26, Kelsey Voeghtly, 25, and Sara Ridgeway, 22. A 15-year-old girl was taken into protective custody, and was later released to her parents.
