Woman held over shots fired at Rihanna's LA mansion

A woman alleged to have fired an assault rifle at the luxury Los Angeles home of Rihanna -- while the pop superstar was inside -- was being held by police on Monday.

Officers in the city said shots were fired towards the mansion in the middle of day on Sunday by a suspect driving a white Tesla, which had stopped across the street.

Aerial footage after the attack showed bullet holes in a gate at the sprawling property, which Rihanna shares with rapper A$AP Rocky and their three children.

The Los Angeles Police Department said Ivanna Lisette Ortiz was arrested at a shopping complex half an hour after the incident.

Captain Mike Bland told reporters the weapon used was an AR-15-style rifle.

Ortiz was booked on suspicion of attempted murder with bail set at $10.225 million.

Rihanna, one of the world's most popular pop stars, has not publicly commented on the shooting.
