GREAT FALLS, M.T.--Officials say someone hacked into a television station's emergency alert system and sent out a message while a nationally syndicated program was airing. 

A station spokesperson at KRTV-TV in Montana said someone sent out a message saying, 'dead bodies are rising from their graves' during 'The Steve Wilkos Show'. 

The warning also told viewers to not try to apprehend the dangerous individuals. 

The station says their engineers are investigating to determine how the message was broadcasted.
