HONOLULU -- Two Radford School high school teachers are charged with soliciting prostitution.

The men are also coaches at the school.

The school's principal responded to the charges Friday saying the incident is a personnel issue that will be dealt with on Monday. Another school official called the situation tragic saying the men are excellent educators.

Police arrested 26-year old Jacob Sur and 37-year old Albert Hetrick early Thursday morning at the corner of South Kukui Street and Pali Highway for soliciting prostitution.

Sur is a special education teacher at Radford High School along with being an assistant football and baseball coach. He graduated from Radford where he played both Varsity football and baseball in the late 90s.

Hetrick is a math teacher at the school and is also a coach for the football program.

School principal Elias Ali confirmed the two men attended the OIA Save Our Sports Fundraiser Wednesday night in downtown Honolulu -- an event to raise money for high school sports.

Police arrested the men not far away during a prostitution sting that nabbed at least two other men.

Police said female officers posed as prostitutes as part of the operation that was in response to complaints of prostitutes gathering in the neighborhood.

The school's principal declined to comment on camera but did say he only learned of the incident Friday afternoon and was still gathering the facts of the case.

He said on Monday he will look at taking the proper disciplinary action.

The men are released on bail pending a court hearing.

KITV has learned they did not attend their team's football game Friday evening.
