Los Angeles County prosecutors say 26-year-old Eduardo Leon of Fullerton was charged May 14 with felony counts of stalking, burglary and vandalism, and a misdemeanor count of resisting arrest. He has pleaded not guilty to all of the charges.

Leon is accused of climbing over a fence and breaking into the house on May 9. Authorities say Rihanna’s assistant found him and called police.
