A man by the name of Eduardo Leon broke into Rihanna's Los Angeles home on Wednesday.

After being arrested, Eduardo told the police that he was there to have sex with the 30-year-old singer who was out of town at the time; she has been in New York City all week, reported the Daily Mail.

According to TMZ, Rihanna's assistant discovered Leon in the house on Thursday morning.

The 26-year-old stalker, who gained access to the house after managing to disarm the security system, was on the property for nearly 24 hours before he was arrested.

The police told TMZ that he had unpacked a bag and was charging his phone.

Eduardo was booked for stalking, residential burglary, and trespassing. His bail was set at $150,000.

The Work singer has dealt with several crazed fans over the years.

Back in 2016, police investigated a man after he sent a death threat to Rihanna and took a selfie outside of her home.

In 2014, New York homeless man Kevin Mcglynn was arrested for delivering hand-written notes calling her a 'b****' to her SoHo apartment, as well as sending four letters to her LA home.

And in 2013, there were two separate attempted break-ins at her home in Los Angeles.
