A Des Moines man has been charged with prostitution in connection with a shooting on the city's east side last month, police said.

Felix Adolfo Calel Calderon, 46, was arrested Thursday evening and charged with prostitution.

Court records allege Calderon got into a fight with a woman on July 10 over their agreement to exchange money for sex, resulting in the woman being shot in her back.

According to a criminal complaint filed in court against Calderon, he contacted the woman over the internet, and when she arrived at his apartment in the 1300 block of East Euclid Avenue on July 10, they agreed he would pay $100 in exchange for sex.

The fight started when Calderon "did not think he received the amount of time agreed upon," according to the complaint.

"A fight over a gun that was produced caused the gun to go off, striking (the woman) in the back," according to the complaint. Further details on the shooting were not available.

Police were made aware of the shooting after a passer-by found the woman outside with gunshot wounds, police told reporters on July 11, a day after the shooting. She was taken to a hospital for medical treatment.

"The investigation by detectives found probable cause to file the prostitution charge on Calderon after evidence indicated that he made a financial arrangement for sex acts with the other person involved in this case," Des Moines Police spokesman Sgt. Paul Parizek said Friday morning.

"At this time, no other charges are being filed due to a lack of cooperation from the other person involved," Parizek said.

Calderon was booked into the Polk County Jail.
