The murder trial of Aaron Hernandez was interrupted by a bomb threat at the Bristol Superior Court courthouse in Fall River, Mass., on Thursday afternoon.

The threat was called in at about noon, and people were evacuated from the building and positioned on the other side of the street.

Hernandez has pleaded not guilty to the murder of Odin Lloyd at an industrial park near his home.
