Like he said, just replace the broken one and you'll be fine, no big problem.

yes, make sure the other 3 is tightened but make sure you get it done ASAP.

Someone once stole 1 lug nut from all 4 wheels and I drove around for at least a week without noticing, I guess he really needed it. I am just glad he didn't take them all from one wheel
