A 35-year-old Orlando woman faces attempted murder charges after allegedly opening fire with a semiautomatic rifle at pop icon Rihanna’s Los Angeles residence on Sunday afternoon. Ivanna Lisette Ortiz remains in custody with bail set at $1.875 million following the targeted attack that occurred while Rihanna and partner A$AP Rocky were present at the property.
According to prosecutors, Ortiz drove her white Tesla to the front of the celebrity’s mansion at approximately 1:15 PM local time and discharged multiple rounds toward the inhabited structure before fleeing the scene. Law enforcement officials located her vehicle eight miles from the crime scene at the Sherman Oaks Galleria shopping center, where she was subsequently apprehended.
Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan J. Hochman emphasized the severity of the incident, stating: ‘Opening fire in any populated neighborhood is extremely dangerous, puts lives at risk and will be fully prosecuted.’ He further warned that ‘such shooters will find their next destination to be our jails and prisons.’
Despite the weapon being fired toward a occupied residence and adjacent property, no injuries were reported from the shooting. Ortiz now confronts additional felony charges including ten counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm and three counts of shooting at an inhabited dwelling.
Investigators from the LAPD have uncovered social media posts on Ortiz’s accounts that reference the Barbados-born singer, including one cryptic message on X that read: ‘Are you there? … say something to me directly instead of sneaking around like you talking to me where I’m not at.’
The incident marks another security concern for the celebrity couple, who welcomed their third child together last year. Notably, A$AP Rocky was acquitted in February 2025 of charges related to firing a gun at a former friend—a trial that saw Rihanna bring their two sons to court proceedings.
