Weezer bassist Scott Shriner's wife Jillian Lauren was shot by police officers in Los Angeles Tuesday after authorities say she pointed a gun at a hit-and-run suspect, and refused to obey orders from officers on the scene.
The incident began with a hit-and-run in the LA neighborhood of Eagle Rock, police told TMZ Tuesday, noting that a trio of suspects exited their vehicle on foot and scattered.
All three had been running from the scene, police said, adding that Lauren, 51, came out from one of the nearby homes with a weapon in hand, though 'it's unclear whether she fired' the gun, TMZ reported.
After Lauren did not listen to repeated commands from reporting officers, the LAPD told TMZ, officers shot at Lauren, hitting her shoulder.
Lauren, an author by trade, went back into the house after she was struck, and later emerged from the abode with her hands up in surrender, police told the outlet.
Lauren was subsequently booked in connection with attempted murder, sources confirmed to The New York Post Wednesday.

She got her hash pipe.
Behind these hills I’m reaching for the heights
And chasing all the lights that shine
And when they let you down (it’s another day)
You’ll get up off the ground (it’s another day)
‘Cause morning rolls around and it’s another day of sun
So she was going to try to stop the perps from fleeing from a hit and run so they shot her.
should make a good song.
It’s nuts. They were in the wrong if you ask me.
Exactly. In Texas she would have been a hero, but in CA she gets shot by the police and arrested for attempted murder.
The Matrix is confirmed.
Just one more reason to not go to/be in/live in kommiefornication.
Castle Doctrine should be Nationwide.
Mandatory IQ test required.
I don’t get the attempted murder part. Who was she trying to murder?
Look at that ugly dude with that hot wife, I gotta learn to play the guitar.
I shoulda learned to play the guitar
I shoulda learned to play them drums
Look at that mama, she got it sticking in the camera, man
Man, we could have some
And he’s up there, what’s that? Hawaiian noises?
He’s banging on the bongos like a chimpanzee
Oh, that ain’t workin’, that’s the way you do it
Get your money for nothing, get your chicks for free
Anyone notice how the publications does not even bother to tell us if the police arrested any of the perpetrators. They do tell us that it is only a misdemeanor to do a hit and run in California.
Hot/Crazy Matrix says What?
I thought so.
True. Was she attempting suicide by cop?
Where I'm from - it's MY neighborhood, not the neighborhood of random perps rolling through committing crimes.
Eff the cops in this situation.
I’m confused. If Lauren was in the house, then how was she involved in a wild car chase?
who comes out of the house with a gun over a car accident?... who doesnt drop their firearm when ordered to by police?
