Florida law enforcement makes record number of arrests during human trafficking operation

Florida law enforcement officials arrested 148 people and recovered seven victims during a human trafficking sting called "Operation Summer Shield."

Hillsborough County Sheriff Chad Chronister said during a press conference Tuesday the goal of the operation was to prevent children from becoming victims of human trafficking during the summer, when they're out of school and spending more time on the internet.

He said his office wanted to be proactive to ensure the children did not fall victim to human trafficking.
