VIDEO: Detectives go undercover in 'massage parlor', arrest 44-year-old masseuse

Fresno Police are cracking down on massage parlors suspected of being fronts for prostitution.

The department's Vice squad allowed Action News to go along with them on a routine inspection when one masseuse was taken into custody after officers intervened before a 'pay for sex' transaction could take place in one of the massage rooms.

Investigators began watching the Angel massage parlor after getting complaints from nearby business owners of a large number of male customers at all hours of the day.

The 44-year-old masseuse who was arrested on Thursday is facing misdemeanor prostitution charges.

No other employees were arrested.
