SACRAMENTO — An investigation into human trafficking in Sacramento County has resulted in 27 arrests, authorities said Monday.

The Sacramento County Sheriff's Office said the arrests came as its special investigations bureau conducted an operation on March 22 targeting sex buyers.

During some of the arrests, some of the buyers offered money, drugs and, in one case, a chicken sandwich, while bargaining with undercover deputies, the sheriff's office said.

Among those arrested were a commercial big rig driver and a person on parole with a prior child molestation conviction. Twenty-two vehicles were towed during the operation.
