PUEBLO, Colo. -

Deputies are investigating a bomb threat phoned in to the Pueblo Judicial Building today.

Undersheriff JR Hall said they don't believe the threat to be real, but "we treat all threats the same."

While people are still currently in the building, the Pueblo County jail is currently on lockdown, meaning inmates scheduled for court have not been transported to the building.

The judicial building was already closed due to a water leak on Friday afternoon.
