An alleged sex worker and the man who reportedly hired her were both arrested when the man allegedly fired a gun at the woman’s car after accusing her of stealing his wallet after he paid her to urinate on him in a hotel room.
On November 19, a 66-year-old man reportedly solicited the services of an alleged sex worker and asked her to meet him at a Days Inn in York. He requested that she come to his room and urinate on him while he was lying in the tub.
After the alleged encounter, the woman left the room and headed to the parking lot. She sat in her vehicle and had a snack while viewing videos on the internet. The man, who reportedly thought she stole his wallet upon exiting, approached the vehicle and confronted her. It was reported that when she started to drive away, the man shot at her car.
When the police investigated the events of the incident, they reported that both parties admitted to the paid sexual encounter. The woman said she did not take the man’s wallet, and the man told them he shot at her car because he thought she was about to pull out a weapon.
The woman was taken into custody and booked into the York County Detention Center. She is facing preliminary charges of one count of misdemeanor third-degree promoting prostitution, one count of misdemeanor third-degree false report to law enforcement authorities, one count of misdemeanor first-degree theft by taking, and one count of misdemeanor use/possession of drug paraphernalia. She was held on a $5,000 bond and released five days later using the services of a bail bondsman. According to court records, she has a preliminary hearing scheduled on January 4, 2024.
The man was also arrested, and he is expected to face charges of reckless endangerment, patronizing a prostitute, and several assault counts. He was released from custody on a $75,000 bond.
