The St. Johns County courthouse is now all-clear after an anonymous bomb threat led to an evacuation and search of the building, during which nothing dangerous was found.

The St. Johns County Sheriff's Office said the call came in around 9:05 a.m., and the building was subsequently cleared out. The DMV was also evacuated.

The sheriff's office said the number was unlisted, but that investigators are working to track down who may have been responsible.

The bomb squad searched the buildings with dogs out of an abundance of caution, according to SJSO.
