Bartlesville Masseuse Arrested, Accused Of Prostitution

An undercover police officer arrested a 52-year-old Bartlesville woman Thursday on complaints of prostitution and operating a massage business without a license.

Bartlesville Police Captain Jay Hastings says the woman, Meli Zhao, worked at Panda Massage.

Zhao was arrested after the officer from another department was solicited to pay for sex at the business on East Frank Phillips Boulevard, Hastings says.

During a search of the business, police recovered a log book and business records. 

Hastings says they began their investigation after receiving several complaints adding Panda Massage had been advertising on websites like "Back Page" and other adult sites.
