The woman who allegedly shot at Rihanna’s Beverly Hills mansion on Sunday afternoon has been identified as 35-year-old Ivanna Ortiz, police confirmed to Page Six on Monday.

Ortiz was arrested for attempted murder by the Los Angeles Police Department on Sunday.

She’s currently being held at LAPD Metropolitan Detention Center with bail set at $10.225 million.

As we previously reported, the suspect allegedly used an AR-15-style rifle to fire bullets at Rihanna’s $14 million home where she lives with her partner, rapper A$AP Rocky, and their three kids — RZA, 3, Riot Rose, 2, and 5-month-old Rocki Irish Mayers.

Police responded to the report of the shooting at 1:21 p.m. Sunday and quickly took Ortiz into custody.

The LA Times reported that police dispatch revealed “approximately 10 shots” were fired from a vehicle, a white Tesla, across the street from the residence.

One bullet reportedly pierced a wall of Rihanna’s residence, an LAPD spokesperson told the California Post.

The Tesla subsequently fled south on Coldwater Canyon Drive, per dispatch audio.

A motive for the shooting is still unknown at this time.

Rihanna, 38, was inside her mansion when the incident occurred, but Rocky was not at home at the time, a family source confirmed to The Post.

The source noted that “they are all doing okay.”

Page Six can confirm that Ortiz was previously arrested in her home state of Florida for careless driving, domestic violence and violating pretrial release conditions.

Page Six has not heard back from reps for Rihanna and Rocky.

Rihanna has dealt with other scary incidents related to one of her California properties.

In 2018, a 27-year-old man identified as Eduardo Leon broke into her Hollywood Hills residence after hopping a fence, according to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office.

Leon allegedly slipped inside the residence while the Grammy Award winner was away and camped out there for roughly 12 hours before being discovered by one of her assistants.

He later pleaded no contest to stalking and was slapped with a 10-year stay-away order.
