Don Lemon's Close Call: Rihanna Shooting

It's March 23rd.

This is entertainment and celebrity news today, AI-powered stories from the spotlight.

Don Lemon recently opened up about a frightening close call tied to the shooting at Rihanna's

Beverly Hills home.

Earlier this month, on March 8th, around 1.20pm, gunfire targeted the singer's gate in

the upscale Beverly Crest area.

Rihanna, her partner ASAP Rocky, their three kids, and her mother were inside at the time,

but no one was hurt.

Lemon was in Los Angeles that day for the LA Marathon and had plans to visit a friend

living very close to Rihanna's place.

They were set to stay there, but traffic and car troubles kept them away, so they headed

to the airport early instead.

The narrow mis-hit home for Lemon, who called it really scary.

His friend's house even took some damage from stray bullets, and at least two other homes

on the block were struck too.

He expressed relief that Rihanna and her family came through unharmed.

This quickly arrested a 35-year-old woman from Florida, named Vanna Lissette Ortiz, right

after the incident.

She's facing serious charges, including one count of attempted murder and ten counts

of assault with a semi-automatic firearm, plus more for shooting, at homes and vehicles.

These stories remind us how unpredictable life can be, and it's a good news to cherish

every moment while staying safe out there.
