Hackers Broadcast Emergency Zombie Alert on Montana TV Station

Program was running normally on Monday for KRTV in Montana.

Least it was until the Emergency Alert System activated and broadcasted a message.

"Authorities in your area have reported that the bodies of the dead are rising from their graves and attacking the living. … Do not attempt to approach or apprehend these bodies as they are considered extremely dangerous."

Hackers are being blamed for the fake message, which was seen in Great Falls and a few other areas.

Great Falls police say no one really panicked over the announcement.

Some people did call in asking if they were legally allowed to shoot zombies, if they came on their lawn.

Authorities are worried that the hackers may attempt to do so again, and cause a panic with something more serious.
