(CBS/AP) STATE COLLEGE, Pa. - Penn State police say they have received a letter from another man who claims he was "possibly assaulted" by former assistant coach Jerry Sandusky.

According to the Centre Daily Times, the letter was received Friday from a man incarcerated in Oklahoma. Penn State police gave the letter to the Pennsylvania Attorney General's Office, which is investigating Sandusky.

A grand jury report issued November 5, the same day Sandusky was arrested, alleges eight victims of molestation over a 15-year period. Since the report became public, at least two more alleged victims have previously come forward and their claims are being investigated.

Sandusky is free on an unsecured $100,000 bail. He is set to appear in court December 13.
