Bettie Jennifer, the wife of Ghanaian actor, Chris Attoh, has been shot dead in the United States.
Bettie was walking to her car when a man armed with a handgun approached her before shooting her in the head.
The shooting reportedly took place on Friday, May 10 in the parking lot of a Maryland office building.
Police described the suspect as “a black male with a thick build and black hair, wearing a dark shirt and pants.”
The Greenbelt Police Department said that the assailant fled in a vehicle after shooting her.
