The Anchorage Police Department says there’s a growing problem in Anchorage — spas and massage parlors that are really just a front for prostitution.
Thursday, APD raided Rainbow Spa in Anchorage and arrested one woman for prostitution.
Police say there were a number of women not only living in the store, but also offering clients sexual favors for money.
This is the seventh time APD has been to this massage parlor and the second prostitution bust in just two days.
Wednesday, police arrested a woman for prostitution at World Spa — also in Anchorage.
APD says it’s a common theme: Owners bring up women from other states, they get busted and shut down only to reopen a few doors away under a different name.
