Adam decided to play a practical joke on Linda. As Linda was leaving her office, Adam, wearing a mask, stepped outfrom behind some bushes. He pointed a handgun made out of licorice at Linda and demanded her purse. He then pushed the candy gun to her head and told her if she refused, he'd kill her.

b$.$ Yes, but only if Adam intended to cause Linda serious emotional distress.
