A woman has been arrested after firing multiple shots into the Beverly Hills residence of Rihanna and A$AP Rocky on Sunday, according to law enforcement sources and media reports.

The Los Angeles Police Department said officers responded around 1:21 p.m. to a 911 call reporting gunfire. The suspect, described as a 30-year-old woman, reportedly fired roughly 10 rounds from a white Tesla across the street from the home, with at least one bullet penetrating a wall of the mansion. Police tracked the vehicle to a parking lot in Sherman Oaks, where the suspect was taken into custody.

According to TMZ and the Los Angeles Times, Rihanna was inside the house at the time of the shooting. It is unclear whether A$AP Rocky or their three children—sons RZA, 3, and Riot Rose, 2, and daughter Rocki, born last September—were present. No injuries have been reported.

Authorities are investigating a potential motive for the attack. The couple’s residence is located in Beverly Hills’ affluent Post Office neighborhood.

Representatives for Rihanna, A$AP Rocky, and the LAPD did not immediately provide additional comment.
