Toronto Police have arrested one man and are hunting a second they say is wanted in eight knife-point robberies targeting women who worked at massage parlours or spas.

Investigators say the incidents, which took place in February and March, saw a man enter massage parlours and spas posing as a client.

In each case, victims were forced into a chokehold and then had a knife held to their throats as the man demanded money and, in some cases, their personal belongings.

The robber then took off on foot.

Police said the victims didn’t sustain any injuries.

On Tuesday, the Hold Up Squad arrested a man after executing a search warrant.

Jaiwei Dai, 24, of Toronto, has been charged with four counts of robbery with an offensive weapon, two counts of forcible confinement, and three counts of conspiracy to commit an indictable offence.
