A Massachusetts spa owner is accused of trying to bribe a customer not to call police after the woman reported that a masseur at the business had assaulted her.
Police said it happened at the Health Spa on Southbridge Street in Auburn on Oct. 6. According to police, the victim, a 30-year-old woman, came in for a massage and the masseur allegedly forced her to touch him inappropriately.
According to police, the owner of the spa, identified as 52-year-old Chengan Zhu, then tried to bribe the victim, offering her money if she didn't make a report to police.
Zhu was arrested at the spa on a witness intimidation charge. He was arraigned in Worcester District Court on Dec. 11 and released on personal recognizance, police said.
The masseur, 22-year-old Guangyo of Shrewsbury, has been charged with indecent assault and battery of a person over 14.
