Ghanaian actress Efia Odo has opened up on how she escaped jail in the United States.

According to the socialite, she and her ex-boyfriend were chased by the United States police after he refused to stop their vehicle after crossing a red traffic light, leading to a hot pursuit by four police cars.

“I was like, ‘Stop the car; why won’t you stop the car?’ He said no, I can’t stop the car, and I’m like, “Why?” Efia recounted.

“He said the car was stolen. I was in a stolen car with this guy, and I didn’t know he was an ex-convict, and I didn’t know anything.”

Sadly, Efia stated that her boyfriend eventually abandoned her in the car and fled on foot, leaving her to face the police alone.

“He eventually slowed down, hopped out of the car, and left me in the car. I got arrested, and they gave me a breakdown of who this guy was,” she said.

The police informed Efia that her boyfriend was wanted for attempted robbery and other crimes.

However, due to her youth at the time, she was not prosecuted.

“He was wanted for attempted robbery and so many things, but I was young, so they didn’t really keep me,” She concluded.
