Authorities say that the suspect opened fire on the property at 1.21pm on Sunday, firing rounds with an AR-15-style rifle.
Police say that Rihanna was at home but not hurt. It is not currently known if the singer’s partner A$AP Rocky or their three young children were in the building. According to police sergeant Jonathan de Vera, a spokesperson for the LA police department, no injuries were reported in the incident.
Los Angeles police and a representative for the singer did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Local police say that a woman drove up to the property in a white Tesla and fired between seven and nine rounds, with at least four striking the house. Per LAPD radio dispatch audio, as reported by the LA Times, the suspect then fled south. She was arrested in a parking lot in the Sherman Oaks neighborhood about 30 minutes after the shooting.
A neighbor told NBC that she was washing dishes when she heard the sounds of gunfire on Sunday afternoon. “I was pretty shocked. We don’t hear this kind of thing in this neighborhood,” she said. “It’s pretty quiet.”
