OSHKOSH, WI (MetroSource-WSAU) - Police in Oshkosh are asking parents who took their kids to see Santa at the local YMCA to come forward if they believe he sexually assaulted their children.

Officers arrested 75-year-old B.T. Adams last week. They say they caught him on video abusing a three-year-old girl. Police think there may be more victims.

A surveillance tape shows Adams kissing the girl on the mouth. They also believe he took the girl into a bathroom where she was sexually assaulted.

Adams worked as a volunteer at the Y in Oshkosh, including a stint as Santa between November 8th and when he was arrested on December 6th. Investigators say more than a dozen parents have come forward already with their own complaints about Adams.
