The City of Angels has been a hotspot for celebrity carjackings as of late.

This past weekend, reports came out revealing that Jhené Aiko fell victim to having her car stolen from a Los Angeles restaurant recently. The R&B songstress was dining at Tasty Noodle House with her beau and family at the time. She witnessed someone drive off with her 2020 Range Rover from the establishment, assuming that the valet she left her keys with was just relocating the whip. Unfortunately for her, it still hasn't been found. Now, we know it's not the only incident of such nature to take place in the City of Angels. According to TMZ, Rihanna's house was also recently targeted by thieves.

Just a few days ago, the expecting mother's driver pulled up outside of her home in the area. At the time, he was quickly running inside to grab something. For some reason, he opted to leave his keys in the 2012 Audi sedan with the engine running. Obviously, this wasn't the smartest move on his part. The vehicle had disappeared by the time he made it back outside. It remains unclear if Rihanna was home at the time, though her staff member is under the impression that someone saw the car, jumped inside, and took off, law enforcement sources have confirmed.

LAPD is investigating the situation, though, much like in Aiko's situation, no leads have been discovered at this time. Of course, this isn't the only strange activity that's been unfolding at Rihanna's home as of late. Last Thursday (March 23), a strange man showed up on her property, claiming he wanted to propose to the Barbadian beauty. Authorities promptly raced to her home, where the perp was arrested and taken away to ensure her safety.

A few years back, in 2018, another man caused concern by crashing at Rihanna's home for at least a day. Upon his arrest, he told police that he was planning to have sex with the 35-year-old – a fantasy which obviously never came true for him.
