In the aftermath of the incident, photographs surfaced showing yellow tape cordoning off Rihanna’s property as two men, seemingly security personnel, stood outside next to a white vehicle.
The LA Times cites Police Sgt. Jonathan de Vera, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles Police Department, stating that no injuries were reported in the incident.
The publication also reports that the LAPD radio dispatch for the incident indicated that “approximately 10 shots” were fired at the property from a vehicle positioned across the street from the residence’s gate. The vehicle, a white Tesla, then sped off south on Coldwater Canyon Drive, according to the dispatch audio.
The reason behind the shooting remains unclear. Authorities are now endeavouring to establish the motive.
The chart-topper bought the £14 million five-bedroom house in 2021. It is situated on a secluded cul-de-sac in the mountains on a 21,958-square-foot plot.
The Mirror has contacted Rihanna’s representatives and the Beverly Hills Police Department for comment but has yet to receive a response.
