Soooooooo scared

I'm so scared because my friend came over to my house and she was talking to her dad on a walkie-talkie,and we heard someone saying that they were going to kill her dad,and cussing her out,and she started crying and screaming into the thing that it wasn't funny,and then she called her house and nobody answered so then my dad was going to drive her to her house but then her dad came and when she was asking him if she was okay,he started laughing,so I don't know if it was a joke or not
