Eziya Bowden’s suspicions rose as her Lyft driver started spraying the car, telling her how attractive she was and how he’d date her if she weren’t so young.

A Raleigh, North Carolina, teen is safely back home after jumping out of a moving Lyft vehicle, acting on suspicions about the driver.

According to ABC11 News, Eziya Bowden, 17, was fresh off work when she leapt out of the car a few miles from her home and ended up in the emergency room.

Bowden’s suspicions began as soon as she got into the Lyft vehicle that had arrived for her. The driver made remarks that she found disturbing, such as how attractive she was and how he would date her if she weren’t so young.


“How many boys flirted with you? He said that right away,” Bowden recalled, according to ABC 11. “If I’m riding with a stranger, I’m always nervous, but I knew, this it was different. I knew that I wasn’t going crazy or anything, I knew that my body has never felt like that before. I’ve seen a lot of this so I knew I was feeling drugged.”

Bowden claimed that the car smelled like cigarettes when she first climbed inside. The driver sprayed something, and the odor subsided, but he persisted in spraying. She described starting to feel warm and disoriented.
