"Downtown bomb threat ends with discovery of pants in bathroom"
By Howard Pankratz

In the article "Downtown bomb threat ends with discovery of pants in a bathroom" by Howard Pankratz, it talks about how there was a bomb threat right off of Colfax and all the bomb squad found was a pair of jeans. A bomb threat shut down a Downtown Denver building at about 9:30 am because an employee heard a ticking noise in one of the bathroom stalls. The building was evacuated after the bomb squad arrived to search for any explosives. They were in the building for about 30 mins and when the officer came out he was holding a pair of regular pants normally worn by inmates; this building was a probation office. This matters to the city because it is a bomb threat and if it is true then it would harm or affect the people of the whole state. This shows that people can never take something to serious and should always take proper precautions when something serious happens. Clearly, these people were taking proper steps to be safe even though it turned out to be fake.
