Suspect charged with attempted murder of Rihanna faces additional charges in court | CNN

Ivanna Ortiz, the 35-year-old woman criminally charged after “trying to kill” singer Rihanna, made her first court appearance Monday, according to a news release from the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office. Ortiz was arrested Sunday after allegedly firing a semiautomatic weapon at Rihanna’s LA home. Ortiz is facing a total of 14 counts, including one count of attempted murder, 10 felony counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm and three felony counts of shooting at an inhabited dwelling or camper, according to the release. Ortiz, who is from Orlando, is being held on $1.8 million bail and is set to appear for an arraignment on March 25. If convicted on all counts, she faces up to life in state prison, the release said. “Opening fire in any populated neighborhood is extremely dangerous, puts lives at risk and will be fully prosecuted,” Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan J. Hochman said in a statement. “Thankfully, no one was injured in this shooting, but this careless violence will not be tolerated in our community. Such shooters will find their next destination to be our jails and prisons.” The Los Angeles County Public Defender’s Office
