Rihanna Home Shooting Suspect Charged With 14 Felonies, Including Attempted Murder

The case now moves to a March 25 arraignment under a protective order with high bail.

Overview

  • Prosecutors identified the suspect as Ivanna Lisette Ortiz, 35, of Florida, alleging she opened fire Sunday at Rihanna’s Beverly Hills–area property while Rihanna, A$AP Rocky, their three children and Rihanna’s mother were present.
  • Ortiz faces one count of attempted murder, 10 counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm tied to people on the property and at a neighboring home, and three counts of shooting at an inhabited dwelling or camper.
  • A judge set bail at about $1.8 million, postponed arraignment to March 25, and issued a protective order barring contact with Rihanna and A$AP Rocky and prohibiting firearm possession.
  • LAPD says multiple rounds were fired from a vehicle parked across the street; officers arrested Ortiz in Sherman Oaks shortly after and recovered an AR‑style rifle and shell casings.
  • Investigators are reviewing social‑media posts and possible travel from Florida to assess motive, and officials reported no injuries though bullet damage was documented on the gate, a wall and an Airstream trailer.
