Lawrence Kelly, 55, of Lawndale; Vladimir Ferko, 37, of Bustleton; Kostandi Koroveshi, 63, of Holmesburg; and Christopher Schroder, 49, of Frankford allegedly offered cash to undercover police in exchange for the promise of sex.

Police also confiscated $1,242 cash, a 2000 Jeep Cherokee, a 2006 Chevy panel van and a 2008 Ford F-250. ••
