Ivanna Ortiz, the woman who allegedly shot at Rihanna and A$AP Rocky's home, has been deemed fit to stand trial.

Earlier this year, Ivanna Ortiz allegedly went to Rihanna and A$AP Rocky's home in Los Angeles and opened fire. Both Rocky and Rihanna were physically unharmed, although mentally, it has certainly wreaked havoc on the couple. Rocky even told VIBE that it “took away a lot of peace and happiness.”

Ortiz had her competency ruling this week as a Los Angeles judge was looking to determine if she is fit to stand trial. This involved psychiatric evaluations, which eventually concluded with the judge telling Ortiz that she will, in fact, be going to trial, according to Complex.

This trial will deal with charges including attempted murder, assault with a semiautomatic firearm, and shooting at an inhabited dwelling or camper.

“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 following the announcement of the charges. “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.”

Ortiz has another hearing on Wednesday. However, at this time, the date of her upcoming trial has yet to be determined. There is still a lot that needs to be figured out before getting to that point. These charges come with decades' worth of potential prison time if convicted.

This is a developing case, so stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest news and updates.
