A 52-year-old Bay City massage therapist was arrested Thursday afternoon on suspicion of sexually assaulting one of his clients.

John Thomas Whitman was arrested after the Bay City Police Department executed a felony search warrant about 3:15 p.m. at his home-based massage therapy business, according to a Bay City Police Department news release.

The release said Whitman is suspected of sexually assaulting a woman who was visiting his business. However, the release said the woman might not have been the only victim.

"We have specific reasons to believe there are additional victims, and our concern is that there may be victims that never came forward," said Detective Cpl. Chris Hadash, who is the lead investigator in the case.

Whitman was transported to the Matagorda County Jail after his arrest, the release said.

Bay City Police Department is encouraging anyone with information on the cases to contact the department at 979-245-8500.
