New details have surfaced about a shooting incident that occurred outside Rihanna’s Los Angeles mansion. The terrifying event saw multiple shots fired, and a law enforcement official shared that A$AP Rocky and Rihanna were present during the attack. The couple was inside an Airstream trailer, which is now riddled with bullet holes. They could have easily been hit during the shooting, according to reports.

Shooting Incident Details

On Sunday, March 8, the shooting took place at Rihanna’s Los Angeles residence. Ivanna Lisette Ortiz is accused of firing shots, facing charges for the incident. These charges include 10 counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm and three counts of shooting at an inhabited vehicle or dwelling. Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman stated that Rihanna, her partner A$AP Rocky, their three children, her mother, and two staff members were present. These eight individuals account for 10 of the charges. Additionally, Ortiz is accused of firing at a neighboring home with two other people inside.

Close Call for A$AP Rocky and Rihanna

The law enforcement official told the Los Angeles Times that Rihanna and A$AP Rocky were together in an Airstream trailer at the time. The trailer sustained damage from the gunfire. “Opening fire in any populated neighborhood is extremely dangerous, puts lives at risk and will be fully prosecuted.” Hochman said in a press release. He added, “Thankfully, no one was injured in this shooting, but this careless violence will not be tolerated in our community. Such shooters will find their next destination to be our jails and prisons.” Ivanna Lisette Ortiz, identified as a licensed speech pathologist from Florida, is currently being held on a $1.8 million bail. Her arraignment has been postponed. If found guilty, she faces life in prison.

Background of the Accused

It remains unclear if Ivanna Lisette Ortiz has any personal connection to Rihanna or A$AP Rocky. However, a Facebook profile appearing to be hers reportedly featured posts referencing the singer. One post allegedly told her to “say something to me directly instead of sneaking around like you talking to me.” The motive behind the shooting is still under investigation
