Pop superstar Rihanna’s Los Angeles mansion was hit by gunfire yesterday after a woman opened fire on the property while the singer was reportedly inside, according to US media.
The shooting erupted after 1:00 pm (8pm Irish time) when a suspect fired approximately 10 rounds from a vehicle across the street from the mansion in the Beverly Hills area, the Los Angeles Times reported, citing police.
At least one round pierced a wall of the residence, where Rihanna lives with partner A$AP Rocky and their children, local news station KTLA said. The singer was inside the house at the time, the reports said.
