Bettie Jenifer, wife of Ghanaian actor, Chris Attoh, has been shot dead in Maryland, USA.
According to the reports, Bettie was shot dead on Friday as she was leaving her office in Maryland.
She had closed from her office in the 6300 blocks of Ivy Lane around 5pm and was walking towards her car when she was approached by a gunman. She reportedly ran as the gunman approached but he chased her and shot her several times. She was declared dead when she was rushed to the hospital.
Police have described the killer as “a black male with a thick build and black hair, wearing a dark shirt and pants.”
Chris and Bettie got married at a private ceremony in Accra October 2018 after the actor divorced Nigerian actress Damilola Adegbite.
Until her death, Bettie was the Sales Director at Express Employment Professionals (Greenbelt Express), a private firm and a leading staffing provider in the U.S., Canada and South Africa.
She attended Walden University for her Business Administration and Management studies while grabbing her Bachelors (Applied Science – BASc) at the Temple University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
