The Houston Police Department is sending a warning to those who go around Bissonnet Street.
FOX 26 Reporter Gabby Hart has more on what Houston police are doing to combat the problem."Bissonnet's closed for business," those words from Reece Hardy, commander of HPD's Westside division. Hardy and his team are taking a different approach to tackle the seemingly never-ending issue of prostitution on what's known as the Bissonnet track.
"Usually, prostitutes are just walking around. But they've been cracking down, and I haven't even seen one or two prostitutes today," he said. FOX 26 Reporter Damali Keith explains in our ongoing series, "FOX in Focus." When asked what would happen when the sex workers just move to a different location, Hardy said they're expecting that.
