Authorities began investigating Felix Roberto Prado of Hackensack on Monday when the male victim, now 24, went to city police, Bergen County Prosecutor John L. Molinelli said.

They found that Prado “abused two other females in the past,” the prosecutor said. “[They] are now also in their mid-twenties.”

The 5-foot-4, 155-pound Prado was being held on $250,000 bail in the Bergen County Jail, following his arrest by members of Molinelli’s Special Victims Unit and the Hackensack Police Department.

He is charged with two counts of aggravated sexual assault, one of sexual assault and three of child endangerment.
