LOS ANGELES (AP) — A Florida woman accused of firing gunshots at Rihanna’s gated home in Los Angeles was charged Tuesday with one count of attempted murder and 10 counts of assault on a person with a semiautomatic firearm, court records showed Tuesday.
The district attorney’s office said 35-year-old Ivanna Lisette Ortiz was charged in the shooting Sunday afternoon outside the superstar’s home in the Beverly Hills area. No one was hurt and it was not clear if the Grammy award-winning performer was home at the time.
Court records show Ortiz also was charged with three counts of shooting at an inhabited vehicle or dwelling. All 14 counts are felonies. The suspect, who was being held on $10.2 million bail, was brought into court to face an afternoon arraignment.
Ortiz appeared in court behind glass in a custody area as she waited for the judge to call her case. She wore blue jail clothes with her blond hair in braids and spoke to a lawyer through the glass.
Los Angeles Police Chief Jim McDonnell told media gathered for a news conference on a different subject earlier Tuesday that 10 people were at home at the time. He identified the house as Rihanna’s, but he did not say whether she, her partner A$AP Rocky or their children were home when the shots were fired.
