MADISON, Wis. -- Madison police warn those who solicit prostitutes -- you may be surprised with what you get.

Madison police assumed the role of hookers in the Burr Oaks neighborhood Wednesday night and picked up six would-be customers during the sting.

Two undercover male officers, watching their female counterparts, were hit on by a woman willing to sell sex for money, News 3 reported.

Police arrested:

Richard A. Powell of Madison for prostitution

Nicolas A. Briones for prostitution

Abraham Garcia Pedro of Madison for prostitution

Rolands G. Aravindan of Madison for prostitution

Carlos Covarrubias of Madison for prostitution

Kathleen G. Tuberville of Sun Prairie for prostitution

Residents and police have been working hard to improve the South side area, and drug-related crime has dropped more than 80 percent in the past year, News 3 reported.

"We like to nip it in the bud, and take care of the problems that come," said neighborhood police officer Tom Grosse. "It's a lot easier now that we've seen such a dramatic decrease in the overcall calls for service as well as other violent crimes."

Among other activities, Burr Oaks neighbors hold a weekly "Take Back The Streets" walk.
