Tampa Massage Parlors: Woman arrested at New Port Richey massage parlor
Friday, April 27th, 2012NEW PORT RICHEY –
New Port Richey massage parlor is in hot water after a woman was arrested on charges ranging from prostitution to practicing massage without a license.
New Port Richey arrested a woman working at Miyako Spa at 4962 US 19. Police aren’t able to identify the woman at this time because she didn’t have a valid form of identification to show American citizenship.
Police made the arrest during an undercover sting sparked by community complaints.
Between 2007 and 2008, six women were arrested back at the spa on similar charges; ICE deported three of them.
Chief James Steffens says the community’s involvement to report unusual activity is what the department needs to crack down on the illegal activity.
The operation was a joint collaboration between New Port Richey Police, the Department of Health, Clearwater police and the Pasco County Sheriff’s Office.
