One shot in Skyway spa robbery

Two suspects are on the run after a robbery and shooting at a King County massage parlor and spa.

SKYWAY, Wash. - One man was shot and injured at a Seattle neighborhood spa late Thursday night. 

Sgt. Tim Meyer with the King County Sheriff's Office said officers responded to a robbery at South Bay Spa in the Skyway neighborhood around 9 p.m.

A man officials believe to be a spa employee was shot. Meyer said the victim was taken to Harborview Medical Center and is expected to survive. 

Robbery reported at massage parlor and spa in Skyway

It happened days after a mass shooting at massage parlors in Atlanta, but detectives say this was a robbery with no other motivations.

Investigators said they are looking for two suspects.

The robbery and shooting happened the same week that a gunman shot and killed eight people at Atlanta area massage parlors, but detectives here said there were no motives in this shooting other than robbery.

The sheriff's office has not released any additional information.
