Police in Radnor Township took two women into custody Thursday after conducting a raid on a Main Line massage parlor, officials said.
Investigators entered the Body of Zen massage parlor, located on the 200 block of Sugartown Road, on suspicion that the business has been soliciting sexual services, according to Main Line Media News.
The raid was carried out after a joint investigation by the Pennsylvania State Police and the Delaware County District Attorney's Office. The two women, who were not identified, allegedly propositioned undercover officers and had been running a series of ads that appeared to show underage "new girls" who would offer patrons more than a massage.
Police said the women were arrested and questioned while a locksmith was called to close off the establishment.
Authorities plan to investigate whether the alleged violations may be tied to a larger human trafficking ring.
The women have been charged with misdemeanor solicitation, but could see those charges upgraded upon review of further evidence.
