OGDEN, Utah – The second bomb threat in as many weeks evacuated the Weber County courts Thursday afternoon.

Officials said the threat against the Weber County courts was called in just after 1 p.m.

Investigators gave the “all-clear” at the Ogden courthouse at 3:30 p.m.

Ogden Police said no specific location was mentioned.

Authorities notified the district, juvenile and justice courts.

Bomb-sniffing dogs were called in to search the buildings.

This is the second time a threat has evacuated the courthouses in as many weeks.
