The Florida woman who allegedly shot at the Los Angeles mansion of pop superstar Rihanna has pleaded not guilty to attempted murder and more than a dozen related charges.

Ivanna Lisette Ortiz, 35, is accused of trying to kill Rihanna after allegedly firing a semiautomatic rifle at the musician's Beverly Crest mansion at 13:15 local time (21:15 GMT) on 8 March.

Court documents allege Ortiz was trying to shoot Rihanna, rapper A$AP Rocky, their three young children and others who were in the home and another adjacent property. No one was injured.

Ortiz, who could face a life sentence, remains in detention and entered her plea on Wednesday in Los Angeles County Superior Court through her attorney.
