Door-To-Door Masseur Rings The Wrong Bells In Concord; Arrest Made

File Photo

A man going door-to-door offering massages in the area of Clayton Road and La Vista Avenue in the Canterbury Village neighborhood of Concord attracted the wrong kind of attention and was eventually arrested, according to police.

Concord police did not specify the charges or give the man’s name, citing their ongoing investigation.

However, they asked anyone who may have been contacted by the individual or had a similar experience to contact Detective DeMott in the Special Victims Unit at 925-603-5851 or by email at Andrew.DeMott@cityofconcord.org

    “Concord police did not specify the charges or give the man’s name”…Really! They can do that in this country? Arrest without specifying charges. I would hate to be the Fuller Brush Man in Concurd. Also, Canterbury Village in Concurd? Really? All Gothic and Romanesque?…I’m not seeing it. I guess I don’t possess that salesman’s vision of what Concurd might be…in a hundred years.

      The dude was literally going door to door doing explicit things to himself. It’s not that difficult to deduce that he obviously did something something to get arrested.

      This is a video of a local woman who caught it on her ring.

        He sounds developmentally disabled. Still… it’s a real ewwww. Glad he’s off the street.

      • Bette Skarsgaard on Jun 25, 2021 at 7:11 am

        So very strange – he looks like he has the gear and everything. Couldn’t tell if he had a folding table which some use. Very scary. Updates please.

      @david
      Do you think, maybe they just aren’t telling the public? ?‍♂️

      • Hunter Glenn-Willow on Jun 25, 2021 at 1:48 pm

        Probably. It’s my experience they only tell the public what they want the public to know.

      • david on Jun 25, 2021 at 9:39 pm

        If this was a lawful arrest, the guy was told why he was being arrested. I inferred something from the text of the article that was a misreading of the simple fact that the police were not giving more information at the time. I have no interest in watching the video. I accept the reporting that it was bad behavior and required intervention. But, hey, Canterbury Village of Concurd? C’mon

    • Greg T on Jun 25, 2021 at 9:29 pm

      David, you need to get out of your Lamorinda bubble one in a while.?
      It also appears that you jumped to conclusions against police right away

    • Frank on Jun 26, 2021 at 12:33 am

      He was choking his chicken at the door. It’s all on video, dude.

      • david on Jun 26, 2021 at 9:48 pm

        That may be. There may have been 10 witnesses, but that’s not what was reported on this website.

  2. david on Jun 24, 2021 at 9:47 pm

    The man was a “masseuse”? Was there even time for that transformation to even happen? Before or after the arrest?

  3. david on Jun 24, 2021 at 9:57 pm

    Personally, in the interest of self-preservation, I would prioritize enforcement against illegal fireworks and gun violence over the self-promotion of Jose or Josefa…masseur/masseuse…but that’s just me.

  4. david on Jun 24, 2021 at 10:06 pm

    Is there a limit on the number of comments that has not been disclosed? Mine grow hoary sometimes.

    • NEWS24-680 on Jun 24, 2021 at 10:11 pm

      Prefer them civil and on topic.

      • Kleinart Farms on Jun 25, 2021 at 10:10 pm

        So do the majority of your readers.

  5. Mark Liebalt on Jun 25, 2021 at 1:54 am

    That’s like that guy who goes around selling meat out of his truck.

  6. Jess Mendosa on Jun 25, 2021 at 6:57 am

    Obviously needed to be stopped and glad he was. Good work CPD.

  7. Anthony on Jun 25, 2021 at 7:00 am

    Deeply deeply troubling. Hovering right at her door. Agree he needed to be stepped on and fast. I would bet he has priors for this.

  8. Jan on Jun 25, 2021 at 7:29 am

    David, you probably aren’t aware that he was exposing himself and performing sex acts (caught on the Ring video), as well as has been accused of sneaking into woman’s house…I think the community thinks he was very dangerous, and is glad CPD made the arrest. He is definitely not a harmless door to door salesman. Doubt you’d want him at your family’s house.

    • Adam Miller on Jun 25, 2021 at 8:06 am

      Yes. Didn’t know he actually made it inside a home. Has to have done this before….???

  9. Jeff Lowe on Jun 25, 2021 at 7:42 am

    And here I thought the primary front door wrongdoers were porch pirates……

    • NEWS24-680 on Jun 25, 2021 at 7:43 am

      Disturbing adaptation.

  10. Dara Ann on Jun 25, 2021 at 9:10 am

    My God. What if a child had answered the door. Not everyone has a ring camera. Glad he was arrested!!!

    • NEWS24-680 on Jun 25, 2021 at 9:23 am

      Quite right…

  11. Keith Montoya on Jun 25, 2021 at 9:12 am

    Even prior to the video posted, the Special Victims Unit handles sexual assaults, etc.

    • Adam Miller on Jun 25, 2021 at 10:03 am

      Keith….. I’m unclear are you saying he was arrested before the video was even posted??

      • Keith Montoya on Jun 25, 2021 at 1:41 pm

        No Adam. I’m saying the article spells out that the detective is in the Special Victims Unit, and I happen to know what that entails. Then Dinda posted a video, which hopefully made it clear to others that he was a threat. I have no idea when he was arrested. I wasn’t there.

        • Adam Miller on Jun 25, 2021 at 6:21 pm

          Thanks. Definite threat. I was just interested in the timing of this thing. Obviously in need of some time in the Greybar Hotel.

  12. Kim Gunderson on Jun 25, 2021 at 10:01 am

    Creeper. Glad he was busted.

  13. Will on Jun 25, 2021 at 10:17 am

    Maybe David could Walk the Talk, and post his bail.

    • david on Jun 25, 2021 at 9:47 pm

      “A man going door-to-door offering massages”. That is the extent of what we knew when I commented. That is not chargeable.

  14. Zoe's Mom on Jun 25, 2021 at 4:56 pm

    These creepers used to hang out in dark parks and alleys, now they’re coming to our door.

  15. Gregg Platte on Jun 25, 2021 at 8:17 pm

    Keep him for a while please. I’ll feel better.
