Jurors in Rihanna’s partner A$AP Rocky’s felony criminal trial in Los Angeles found him not guilty on all counts on Tuesday.
The 36-year-old had been charged with a pair of felony counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm in the shooting of his one-time friend, A$AP Relli.
The incident happened in Los Angeles, California, in November 2021.
Rihanna broke into tears as the verdict was read after a three-week trial.
Three-time Grammy nominee A$AP Rocky faced up to 24 years in jail if convicted in the case.
A$AP Rocky then ran over to hug the music superstar.
“Thanks y´all for saving my life,” A$AP Rocky told the jury, which was composed of seven women and five men.
Rihanna also took to her Instagram Stories Tuesday to express her relief.
“The Glory Belongs To God And God Alone!” The We Found Love Artist said, adding “Thankful, Humbled By His Mercy!”
