Cochise County Sheriff Mark Dannels said officials are taking the threat very seriously.
This comes after bomb threats, later deemed noncredible by the FBI, were also reported in Georgia, Michigan, Arizona and Wisconsin. The FBI said the hoax threats in these states appeared to originate from Russia.
Dannels told NewsNation the Cochise County Sheriff’s Office has not yet connected the threat received by the Bisbee office to the ones happening across the country.
KOLD reports that threats were also made against election offices in Pima and Navajo counties. The Tucson Police Department and the bomb squad checked out the Pima County Recorder’s Office and the Pima County Elections Department and said these were not credible threats, according to KOLD.
