A suspect is wanted for the violent robbery and possible sex assault of a woman in a West Village massage parlor, police said yesterday.
The perp entered the Body Work Foot & Back parlor on Washington Place at about 10 a.m. Friday and beat the 41-year-old victim into unconsciousness.
He then may have attempted a criminal sex act on the woman, though she is uncertain because she was drifting in and out of consciousness, police added.
