ATLANTA -- A new surveillance camera has resulted in the arrest of about a dozen suspected male prostitutes and their customers

The camera went up near the intersection of 8th and Cypress Streets in Midtown Atlanta two months ago.

Police say it has been catching male prostitutes and their customers setting up meetings.

Investigators told Channel 2 Action News that prostitutes set up for business beginning in the afternoon and continue late into the night.

"They work in shifts," says Maurice Thomas of the Atlanta Police Department.

Officers say many of the customers arrested have come from outside the city of Atlanta.
