Customer assaulted, robbed
A 26-year-old Mililani man was arrested Wednesday after he allegedly assaulted and robbed another man because they failed to agree on the price of a massage that afternoon.
Police said the two had been negotiating a fee for a private massage the customer was supposed to receive from a masseuse, a woman, at 4:42 p.m. Wednesday. An argument turned heated when the suspect, a masseur, demanded money from the victim, 27, though no services were performed.
The victim was assaulted and his money taken at the masseur’s home. The suspect was located at the home and arrested for alleged second-degree robbery. A woman, 20, was also arrested at the address on drug and misdemeanor theft charges.
