Summary: A woman has been arrested after allegedly firing multiple shots from an AR-15-style rifle at Rihanna’s Beverly Hills home while the singer was inside. No injuries reported.
A shocking incident unfolded on Sunday, March 8, when a woman allegedly opened fire at international music superstar Rihanna’s luxurious Beverly Crest residence in Los Angeles, United States.
According to reports from the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD), the terrifying attack occurred around 1:21 p.m. local time at the singer’s home located on the 9500 block of Heather Road.
Details of the Attack
Police say the suspect, an unidentified woman believed to be in her 30s, drove to the property and brazenly fired multiple shots at the residence using an AR-15-style rifle. The LAPD confirmed that between seven and nine rounds were discharged, with at least four bullets striking the building.
According to investigators, the woman stopped her vehicle outside the gate of the mansion and fired seven shots before quickly speeding away from the scene.
Swift Police Response
Law enforcement officers acted quickly, tracking down the suspect’s vehicle approximately eight miles (about 12 kilometers) from Rihanna’s home. The woman was apprehended and taken into custody without further incident.
Police investigators were later seen examining an Airstream trailer that was parked in the driveway of the property as part of their investigation.
Rihanna Was Home During Attack
In what could have been a far more tragic situation, the LAPD confirmed that the Grammy-winning singer and businesswoman was actually inside her home when the shooting took place. Thankfully, no injuries were reported.
The suspect, whose identity has not yet been released to the public, remains in police custody. The case has been handed over to the LAPD’s elite Robbery-Homicide Division for further investigation.
Investigation Ongoing
As investigators work to determine the motive behind this brazen attack, many questions remain unanswered. What would drive someone to carry out such a dangerous act against one of the world’s most beloved entertainers?
This incident serves as a stark reminder of the security challenges faced by high-profile celebrities, even in their own homes.
