An insider revealed that Rihanna was initially confused after hearing shots, despite having a strong security team. They added, “Even with a great security team in place, it’s scary to realize that something like this can still happen.”
The source continued, “It was terrifying, but Rihanna is thankful everyone is safe.”
Another individual close to the situation mentioned that the family remains uncertain about the motives behind the alleged attack and is concentrating on moving forward.
The luxury property targeted in the shooting, purchased by Rihanna in 2021, is located on a secluded cul-de-sac. The estate boasts five bedrooms, seven bathrooms, a swimming pool, and an open-air courtyard.
The usually quiet neighborhood, where the singer resides, is also home to other celebrities like Mariah Carey and Madonna.
Reports suggest that days prior to the incident, Ortiz allegedly posted a hostile message aimed at Rihanna on social media. This detail is now a part of the investigators’ efforts to uncover the motives behind the case.
