Shots have reportedly been fired outside Star Wars actor Billie Lourd’s Los Angeles home following a confrontation between two construction workers, according to a new report.

Law enforcement officials reportedly told TMZ that police responded to shots fired call at the property, which is currently undergoing renovations.

According to the outlet, a construction worker fired a gun following a conflict with another worker, during which one worker was let go.

The unidentified worker was said to have pulled a rifle and allegedly aimed it at the other worker before firing it at the ground and fleeing the scene.

No injuries have been reported from the alleged shooting and Lourd was said to have not been home at the time of the incident.

It is not clear when the alleged shooting took place and police are said to still be searching for the shooter, according to TMZ.

The report comes amid the actor’s reported renovation of the properties of her late mother and grandmother, Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds.

Lourd is said to be combining the properties, which are located directly next to one another into an $18m estate, according to the outlet.

In September the 28-year-old, who has starred American Horror Story, Scream Queens, and the Star Wars sequel trilogy, welcomed a baby boy with her fiancé, actor Austen Rydell.
