The kidnapper calling from his daughter's iPhone demanded money or she would die. It was all a scam.
Wisconsin Rapids Tribune
It appeared he was getting a call from his daughter, but the voice on the other end was that of a man screaming demands for cash.
There was such a disconnect between the visual cue and the voice on the other end it took Mark Walker a few seconds to gather his thoughts.
The name on his iPhone showed an incoming call from Walker’s daughter, Rachel, but the voice coming out when he answered was that of a manic, excitable man screaming demands for cash and threatening violence. He appeared to have his daughter and her phone.
“He says he’s going to kill my daughter unless I get him $1,000 fast,” Walker, 57, of Noblesville, Indiana, said. “This sudden confusion flushes over you. I knew she was on her way to school to pick up the twins. Could something have happened on the way? I’m thinking a lot of things at once.”
