Chesapeake, Va. - Fourteen women have been arrested after police and Homeland Security served search warrants at several massage parlors in Chesapeake Friday afternoon.
Police have been investigating the parlors for approximately one year, and asked for the assistance of Homeland Security approximately six months ago should the investigation grow into federal jurisdiction, according to police spokeswoman Kelly O'Sullivan.
Police say complaints involved permits and employees giving inappropriate massages.
"We were just like wow, that's crazy because it happened right around here," said Jamie Ward, who works nearby one of the parlors.
