Woman identified in shooting at Rihanna’s Los Angeles house


Los Angeles police on Monday identified a 35-year-old Florida woman as the alleged shooter who opened fire on Rihanna’s Southern California home with an AR-15-style rifle.

Ivanna Lisette Ortiz was booked into custody on suspicion of attempted murder in connection with the Sunday afternoon incident at the property just outside Beverly Hills, police said.

The nine-time Grammy winner was at home when the suspect opened fire, but she was not hurt by any of the four rounds fired from an AR-15-style rifle that hit the property, police said.

A$AP Rocky and their children were also inside the Beverly Crest home, just north of Beverly Hills, when shots were fired at about 1:15 p.m. PDT, police told NBC Los Angeles.

The property’s front gate appeared to have bullet holes, and police investigated the area on Sunday.

The suspect drove up to the property’s entrance and started shooting, police said. A possible motive wasn’t clear for hours immediately after the attack.

The woman under arrest in L.A. was linked to social media accounts of an Illinois native who claims to work as a speech therapist in Florida.

State records indicate that there is a woman of the same name who is a licensed speech-language pathology assistant.

Ortiz’s bail was listed in jail records at $10.225 million. Details of the arrest and investigation are not immediately clear.

The suspect has arrest records linked to Orlando and Orange County, Florida.
