‘Caterer’ arrested for alleged prostitution

Folks who work on Stanley Avenue were shocked today after a new female tenant was arrested on alleged prostitution charges.

The owners of the building in the 3300 block of Stanley said 29-year-old Tanishia Cecil moved in her catering business less than a month ago.

The building owners said Cecil presented business cards that advertised a website which indicated to them it’s a legitimate catering business.

But police point to a different online advertisement in which Cecil allegedly goes by the name “Tiffany.”

The advertisement promises “relaxation sessions” at a private location in the greater Dayton area.

Sherry Hubbard, owner of Micah’s Transmissions down the street, said she’s fed up with all the prostitution activities in the area.

“We own a business down the street and just driving through on a daily basis,” Hubbard said, “I can tell you who are the prostitutes just from seeing them every day. Watching them flag their johns, It’s out of control. We need help.”

Cecil is being held in the Montgomery County Jail on suspicion of promoting prostitution, soliciting and possessing criminal tools.
