DALLAS, Tx. -- Two days after five police officers were killed by a sniper, a Dallas TV station says another threat has prompted a lockdown of police headquarters.

WFAA-TV, the ABC affiliate in Dallas, is reporting that Dallas Police headquarters was locked down, and a SWAT unit responded after what was called a threat that was "being taken seriously."  Dallas PD has not confirmed this, but WFAA's police reporter tweeted pictures of a SWAT unit arriving on the scene.

This is a developing story and will be updated.
