Weezer Bassist's Wife Faces Attempted Murder Charge After Police Shooting

Jillian Lauren Shriner, the wife of Weezer bassist Scott Shriner, was shot by police after allegedly pointing a gun at officers responding to a hit-and-run incident in Eagle Rock, Los Angeles. The police were pursuing suspects from a freeway crash when Lauren emerged from her home with a firearm, ignoring commands to disarm, leading to an officer-involved shooting that left her with non-life-threatening injuries. Following her release from the hospital, she was booked on charges of attempted murder. Scott Shriner confirmed his wife's condition, stating she is 'alright,' and reassured fans that the band would still perform at Coachella as planned. Jillian, a bestselling author, had previously revealed her cancer diagnosis just weeks before the incident. The couple, married since 2005, has two adopted sons.
