Beloit police raid massage parlors in human trafficking investigation

BELOIT, Wis. (WTVO) — Beloit Police said a raid on two massage parlors this week was part of an investigation into human trafficking.

According to police, multiple complaints from the community led authorities to suspect that sexual services were being offered at two massage parlors, in the 2700 block and 2200 block of Prairie Avenue.

An investigation was launched by Beloit Police, the Wisconsin Division of Criminal Investigation, Janesville Police, Rock County Sheriff, U.S. Department of State Diplomatic Security Services, Rock County District Attorney’s office, and other agencies that resulted in search warrants being issued for the businesses.

On Tuesday, April 29th, officers raided the massage parlors and collected evidence and conducted interviews that Beloit Police said were “part of a broader effort to combat human trafficking and the operation of establishments that promote or maintain prostitution.”

No arrests were announced, but authorities said the investigation is ongoing.
