(Boone County, Ky.) - A Burlington massage parlor owner is facing prostitution charges after a police raid of her business Wednesday.

Boone County Sheriff’s deputies executed a search warrant at YoYo Massage on Burlington Pike near Limaburg-Creek Road.

The sheriff’s office crime suppression unit had received a complaint of the possibility of prostitution taking place at the business. An investigation took place over several weeks before deputies were able to obtain a search warrant this week.

The business owner, Yu Hong, 54, was arrested as the massage parlor was searched by police.

A warrant was also granted for a search of Hong’s home on War Admiral Drive in Union. The search of her home yielded additional evidence which supports Hong’s illicit business to include ledgers, cash and bank account information.

Hong is in the Boone County Jail on a charge of Prostitution, a class B misdemeanor.
