Ivanna Ortiz, a 35 year old Florida woman, was arrested and charged with attempted murder after shooting at pop and R&B singer Rihanna’s house in Beverly Hills, California on March 8.
The shooting took place at around 1:15 p.m. as Ortiz opened fire with a rifle from her vehicle, approximately 10 shots were heard fired at the house according to a dispatch audio. Rihanna was home at the time of the shooting along with her partner A$AP Rocky and their three children, RZA, Riot, and Rocki but no one was reported injured. Ortiz drove away and was later arrested at a shopping center in Sherman Oaks after her car was discovered in a parking lot at 2:20 p.m. Ortiz has no personal connection to Rihanna but has a history of arrests and made multiple posts referencing Rihanna in negative ways.
Katarina Coronado, a senior at Liberty High School, says that incidents like these “can make celebrities feel unsafe, cause stress, and lead them to increase security and be more careful about where they go.” Dangerous events similar to this can greatly affect a celebrity’s life and result in more fear, security changes, and less freedom.
