On a quiet Sunday afternoon in one of Los Angeles’ most exclusive neighborhoods, at least 10 gunshots shattered the calm — and one of them punched straight through the wall of Rihanna’s mansion.The “Diamonds” singer was inside her Beverly Hills home when it happened, and the person responsible didn’t get far. In less than one hour, police had her in handcuffs, and what they found in her car raised even more questions.This wasn’t the first time Rihanna’s Los Angeles properties had been targeted. But none of the previous incidents came anywhere close to what unfolded that Sunday afternoon.
Just after 1:21 p.m. on Sunday, March 8, a 30-year-old woman pulled up across the street from Rihanna’s Beverly Hills Post Office neighborhood home and opened fire from inside her vehicle.According to LAPD dispatch audio reviewed by the Los Angeles Times, at least 10 shots were fired at the property’s gate.One round didn’t just graze the surface — it pierced a wall of the mansion. Bullet holes were also found in a gate and in an RV parked in the driveway. Rihanna was inside the home when it all happened.A$AP Rocky, however, was not there at the time, a family source confirmed to the New York Post. It was initially unclear whether the couple’s three young children — sons RZA, three, and Riot, two, and their daughter Rocki, born just over five months ago — were present.
