Hartinger and his officers are trying to stop that cash flow.



"Some of these criminal gangs or groups, even the prostitution groups–they travel. They know that the MLB game is going on. They know when it is, and they plan ahead," Hartinger said on Tuesday. "We have several hotels and properties that are close to the interstate which provides them a great opportunity to stop, do what they have to do, and then they leave."



He plans to increase patrols at hotels and chat with hotel management about what to look for.
