The state police plan to file charges next week against 11 men in connection with a prostitution sting Tuesday night.
In addition, one woman was arrested as an alleged prostitute, and another man is to be cited for disorderly conduct.
The sting was a joint effort between state and New Castle police, using undercover officers and troopers.
The men were arrested after they allegedly solicited a female trooper who was working undercover as a prostitute, according to New Castle Police Chief Tom Sansone.
They allegedly requested sexual acts from the trooper in exchange for money.
He said the names of those allegedly involved will be released when charges are filed.
According to Sansone, the goal of the operation was to identify and arrest people involved in illegal prostitution activities. The detail was part of an ongoing investigation into illegal prostitution activities that have been occurring in the city, he said.
