ABC13 expects to hear more from prosecutors Wednesday about a man they call a "suspected serial sex predator" and if there are more victims out there. Investigators are investigating the case of 37-year-old NASA engineer, Eric Sim, who is accused of multiple sexual assaults on six women. Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg and Houston Police Department officials are set to discuss the case at a Wednesday press conference. Sim, a former aerospace engineer, was arrested at NASA last month and has been under 24/7 house arrest. He allegedly targeted women he met on dating apps and would prey on one woman who believes she was drugged. Both women told authorities they met Sim on a dating app and had been on a few dates with him prior to the alleged assaults. Authorities are now hoping to identify more victims.

HPD, Harris County DA seeking more victims of NASA engineer accused of being 'serial sex predator'
HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Investigators say there could be more victims of a former aerospace engineer accused of multiple sexual assaults.
Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg and Houston Police Department officials are set to talk about the case during a Wednesday press conference, calling 37-year-old Eric Sim a "suspected serial sex predator."
ABC13 will be at the scheduled 2:30 p.m. event, which you can watch on the 24/7 live streaming channel in the video player above.
Sim, a NASA engineer, is accused of sexually assaulting six women. He would allegedly prey on women he met on dating apps. Court documents say one woman thinks she was drugged.
The engineer was arrested at NASA last month.
NASA won't confirm or deny if Sim still has a job there, but ABC13 learned he's been on 24/7 house arrest.
"I'm not fazed at all by the number of complainants, whether it's one, six, or 10," Davis said after Sims bonded out last week. "The question is, 'Do these complainants know each other? How do they know each other? How did they come forward? Why did they wait? What are their motives?' All those things we are exploring."
Authorities are now hoping to identify more victims.
