Officers from the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) responded to reports of 'shots fired' at the musician's plush Beverly Hills mansion around 1:15 p.m. (PCT) on Sunday, March 8, 2026.
According to PEOPLE Magazine, a woman had opened fire on the residence in a White Tesla from across the street and then escaped on Coldwater Canyon Drive.
Authorities apprehended her without incident and confiscated a weapon, while her identity is being withheld at this time.
The Los Angeles Times reported, citing LAPD radio dispatch records, that she fired more than 10 shots before fleeing.
PEOPLE confirmed through sources that Rihanna was home at the time of the incident. The outlet said it was unclear if her husband, A$AP Rocky and any of their three children, RZA, Riot and Rocki, were also at home.
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky reportedly purchased their Beverly Hills mansion in 2020.
The 7,600-square-foot, 1930s-built home reportedly features five bedrooms, seven bathrooms, a chef's kitchen, and a pool, blending modern and traditional design, according to multiple reports.
The music power couple reportedly acquired the property for $13.8million.
