Las Vegas police: Masseuse sexually assaulted, threatened customer
LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — A masseuse allegedly stuck his fingers inside a customer and sexually assaulted her, leading police to suspect there may be additional victims.
Luis Gonzalez, 38, faces a charge of sexual assault and four counts of open or gross lewdness, records said.
On Sunday, Feb. 4, Las Vegas Metro police were called to a business on Decatur Boulevard near Flamingo Road for a report of a woman who said a male employee penetrated her with his finger during a massage, documents said.
The woman told police the “employee put his finger inside of her, took her phone and clothing, and would not give them back to her until [the woman] threatened to scream,” documents said.
Police identified the employee as Gonzalez. Officers arrested Gonzalez at the business and brought the customer to the hospital.
During the session, Gonzalez allegedly “began kissing [the woman’s] breasts, inserting a finger into her vagina for approximately two minutes, and made her touch his penis,” police said.
The business’s manager did not charge the woman and her friend, who was receiving a massage in another room, documents said.
While speaking to police, Gonzalez blamed the customer, saying he believed she was under the influence, though there was no evidence of that.
Detectives believe there may be additional victims. Anyone with information is asked to contact police at 702-828-3421. To remain anonymous, contact Crime Stoppers by phone at 702-385-5555, or at crimestoppersofnv.com.
