US college students jailed in Denmark after argument with Uber driver over wrong address: family
Briefly

Two American college students, Owen Ray and a friend, have been held in a Danish prison for two weeks following a conflict with an Uber driver over a mistaken address. After realizing their mistake, the students attempted to exit the vehicle and call a new ride, prompting an altercation. The driver alleged non-payment, despite evidence showing they paid. Owen’s mother received a shocking text, 'Mom, I'm in prison in Copenhagen,' about his detention, which occurred at the airport without any charges filed against him. Attorney remarks suggest he may be held until the end of the month.
Buchen-Ray, Owen's mother, expressed her disbelief upon receiving a message from her son who said, 'Mom, I'm in prison in Copenhagen,' just hours before their planned reunion.
Jordan Finfer, the family's attorney stated, 'Owen is still detained, is likely to be detained through the end of the month - he's never been charged,' illustrating the uncertainty of their situation.
