DEVELOPING: Dallas police headquarters were placed on high alert Saturday due to an anonymous threat, two days after a sniper ambushed and shot 12 officers, killing five of them.

Dallas police confirmed in a written statement that they had "received an anonymous threat against law enforcement across the city and has taken precautionary measures to heightened security."

Maj. Thomas Castro told the Associated Press several general threats have been made against Dallas police, though nothing specific.

The Dallas Morning News, citing a police source, reported that a lockdown was in effect shortly before 6 p.m. local time. There were no immediate reports of any violence. WFAA reported that the threat was made by a group from Houston that claimed to be armed.

Dallas Police Department spokeswoman Sr. Cpl. Monica Cordova called the measures precautionary.

An armored vehicle was moved to near the department's downtown headquarters late Saturday afternoon and heavily armed officers carrying rifles were seen walking nearby. Police shut down a street in front of the department's headquarters, but members of the public were still able to walk about freely around the building.

Hussein Obama, America's FIRST Muslim President, has a difficult job. Hussein is not an incompetent black playing POTUS, Hussein is a Muslim working for the overthrow of western governments for an Islamic world. When Americans finally figure out they have been had, it is not going to be pretty. But it is getting obvious to even the Democrats, Hussein is working for them, not us.
