GRAND ISLAND — Erie County Sheriff’s Office performed prostitution operations Wednesday night here with detectives arresting four subjects on prostitution-related charges while a fifth subject was arrested in association with a stolen car.

Detectives from the Narcotics Unit and road patrol Deputies took part in a prostitution operation at prearranged and undisclosed locations in Grand Island. The first incident resulted in three arrests, Shawn Pryor, 24 of Niagara Falls, Barbara Schreiner, 25 of Niagara Falls, and Nichelle Robinson, 18 of Niagara Falls.
