An "emergency alert" banner flashed across TV screens in Southern California — a test run monthly across the airwaves. But then suddenly a booming voice followed with an alarming message: "Realize this — that in the last days, extremely violent times will come!"

Though a spokesman for KWVE said he could not confirm that the alert originated from the radio station — but that he would look into it.
