A routine health inspection at the Palms of Emerald Coast Massage Parlor in Fort Walton Beach took a graphic turn Tuesday when an employee allegedly assaulted an official. Authorities report that Fang Wang, 55, became agitated during the check and attempted to physically force a Department of Health inspector out of the building. When police arrived to intervene, Wang reportedly attempted to evade arrest by defecating toward the responding officers. This incident follows a history of investigations at the 139 Beal Parkway SE location, which has previously operated under the names Blue Bay Massage & Spa, New Magnolia Spa, and Classy Spa. Records indicate that Wang was present during multiple previous search warrants served at the establishment. She now faces a felony charge of battery on a specified official and remains in custody.
