Two people ran an illegal brothel off the Las Vegas strip and now face charges, police said.
Heng Van Ho and Yuxiang Tian were both charged in connection to the case.
Brothels are legal in Nevada but not in Clark County, where Las Vegas is located.
Between July 7 and July 21, nearly 200 men entered and excited the operation in a bungalow near the strip, according to police and media reports. The men spent a short time in the residence, usually less than an hour.
Police were tipped off about the alleged activity.
One person told an officer he paid a woman $200 for sex in the home, according to reports. He found the alleged brothel on Craigslist.
Police raided the home and found various items connected to prostitution, reports noted. Authorities said the two had been victimizing women since 2016.
