Jacksonville police have made a massage parlor prostitution arrest.
A 57-year-old woman was arrested Thursday after she allegedly offered to perform a sex act for $70 on an undercover police officer who was getting a massage, according to the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office.
Police said a 55-year-old woman was arrested earlier this month during a prostitution sting at a different Jacksonville massage spa.
