LOS ANGELES, Oct. 6 (UPI) -- The creator of "Bones" said via Twitter production on the U.S. television series has stopped because of a flu outbreak.

"First time in 'Bones' history we are shut down from production," Hart Hanson tweeted. "Damn swine flu! That's gonna cut into Christmas hiatus."

"David (Boreanaz) is out with the flu and the show shut down today since he was in every scene," a series representative told EW.com Monday, confirming the star is among those who are ailing.

Hanson later offered an update on Twitter, stating: "There is no indication that Boreanaz has swine flu. We expect him back tomorrow. I'm now going out to get swine flu myself in atonement."
