Another Northern California massage parlor is under investigation for prostitution allegations after a masseuse allegedly offered to perform a sex act for an undercover officer in exchange for money, police said.
Li Hongfeng, 58, was arrested Tuesday on suspicion of solicitation of prostitution and practicing massage without a city license, Marysville police said in a press release.
Police sent an undercover officer to Marysville Spa, where Hongfeng worked, after receiving complaints of illegal activity at the business, police said. While the officer was receiving a massage, Hongfeng allegedly propositioned a sex act for a set amount of money, the release said. She was arrested by detectives shortly after.
The owner of Marysville Spa, Gu Xiangxia, was cited for violating city municipal codes.
