STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) — Penn State University police say they’ve referred another previous incident of indecent assault to the Attorney General’s Office.

The Centre Daily Times (http://bit.ly/v8SobQ ) reports Sunday that chief Tyrone Parham says the assault “by a known individual” took place in an outdoor swimming pool building sometime between June 1, 2000 and Aug. 30, 2000.

The report was made to university police on Wednesday by a person who was a visitor to the pool.

The paper reports that Parham couldn’t say if the “known individual” is Jerry Sandusky, the former Penn State defensive coordinator who’s been charged with 40 counts of child sex abuse after a two-year investigation by the Attorney General’s Office. Sandusky says he’s innocent.
