Indianapolis—
Police officers, firefighters and code enforcement agents swept into a dozen massage parlors looking for illegal activity. This was the 10th multi-agency raid on these types of businesses in Indianapolis.More than 70 violations of local and state laws were uncovered. Many involved unlicensed parlors and massage therapists.
"The purpose we're out here and the reason why we do these kinds of sweeps is to make sure we're protecting the quality of life for neighborhoods and citizens of Indianapolis," said Adam Collins with the Department of Code Enforcement.
Officials say the businesses that were raided were chosen because of prostitution complaints. However, no one was arrested for prostitution in this particular sweep.
