WAKEFIELD — Two men reportedly broke into a therapeutic massage spa in Greenwood last night armed with a gun and made off with thousands of dollars in cash.

The men, both masked, came into Peaceful Orchid Spa, 1112 Main St., through a rear door as women employees were closing up for the night, police learned using a translation device. The women, who speak Mandarin Chinese, were locked in a bathroom by the suspects, who went through the establishment looking for money and valuables. When they were unsuccessful, the men brought the women out of the bathroom, threatened them with a gun and demanded all cash and other items of value in the business.

Police said the suspects made off with between $6,000 and $7,000 in cash and two iPhones.

The suspects left through the same rear door they used to enter. One woman, whose first day on the job at Peaceful Orchid Spa was yesterday, left through the rear door about the same time.

Wakefield detectives continue their investigation into the incident, which was reported just before 10 p.m. The business closes at 9 p.m.
