"Massage parlour bandits sought"

>CURTIS RUSH, STAFF REPORTER (THESTAR.COM)

Police are looking for four men in their late teens
after a Markham massage parlour was raided last night
and customers and employees robbed.

At about 11:30 p.m., four armed men burst into the
Red Bean Health Centre on Esna Park Dr. near Steeles
Ave. E. and Woodbine Ave., and ordered three female
employees and two male customers to hand over their
cash and valuables, York Regional police say.

When these demands were met, the victims were tied up
with duct tape and the suspects fled.

One of the employees was assaulted and treated at
hospital for minor injuries.

York Regional Police advise people to co-operate with
robbers and call 911 as soon as possible.

Anyone with information about this incident is asked
to contact the York Regional Police at 1-866-876-5423,
ext. 7873, or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.

I'll put it Massage section too if it's not already there...
Damn, I had a review to post too, it'll have to wait...

Gawd Dang!

Isn't Red Bean the same place where they blew the heads off two attendants earlier this year?!?!?

 

[shanna]

this is becoming too common...makes you think twice about going to these kind of places.

 

[Cheetah]

what "kind of places" ? ... hmmm ... hmmm ... OK, this doesn't seem to be a factor.

I suppose they didn't have security cameras (?)

I would bet punks like this prey more on the ethnic run places thinking that the girls there would have more to hide(i.e. immigration issues) and thus be less likely to contact the police.

Hopefully, punks like that will run into immigrants that are from parts of the world where theives are treated differently than they are here.

Idiots. (The punks that is)

Nope .... that was the former Mirage Spa at Denison and Warden. Red Bean is not too far away at Denison and Esna Park.

Massage Parlor Bandits would be an awesome name for a rock band.

Last time I was just cleaning myself up at a spa, I heard some commotion outside. I thought it was the cop and I put on my clothes in record speed. Just turned out to be some customers causing trouble. But from now on, besides the cops, we have to worry about these "bandits" too? What has Toronto become? Gangster paradise?
