Authorities in California are investigating after multiple gunshots were fired at the home of global music star Rihanna in Beverly Hills, with at least one round reportedly striking the mansion.
According to the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD), the incident occurred on Sunday afternoon. Police confirmed that Rihanna was inside the property at the time, although it remains unclear whether her partner A$AP Rocky and their children were also present.
Shots Fired at Luxury Property
Investigators believe that between seven and nine rounds were fired from an AR-15-style rifle, with at least four bullets hitting the house. One of the rounds reportedly penetrated an exterior wall of the property.
Despite the severity of the incident, no injuries were reported.
Police responded quickly to the scene and arrested a 30-year-old female suspect, who was taken into custody shortly after the shooting. Authorities have not yet released details about a possible motive.
The LAPD said the case is being handled by its robbery and homicide division, which is responsible for investigating serious violent crimes in the Los Angeles area.
Family Inside the Home
Rihanna, whose full name is Robyn Rihanna Fenty, shares three children with A$AP Rocky, a daughter and two sons. The couple has largely kept their family life private despite their global celebrity status.
Officials have not confirmed whether the children or A$AP Rocky were inside the residence when the gunfire occurred.
Investigation Underway
The Beverly Hills shooting adds to a growing number of security incidents involving high-profile celebrities in Los Angeles, where luxury homes have increasingly been targeted by intruders or criminal activity in recent years.
Police say investigators are continuing to examine ballistic evidence, interview witnesses and determine the circumstances surrounding the shooting.
Authorities have not yet announced whether additional charges or suspects may be involved.
