Jillian Lauren, an author and the wife of longtime Weezer bassist Scott Shriner, was shot by police outside of the couple’s Los Angeles home on Tuesday while authorities were looking for suspects in a high-speed hit-and-run chase. Police say that when Lauren emerged from the house, she was holding a gun and didn’t follow their orders to drop the weapon; she reportedly fired one shot before police shot her in the shoulder. Upon surrendering to the cops, Lauren was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder and transported to a hospital for the non-life-threatening injuries. She’s since been released on $1 million bond. On top of all of that, Weezer are playing Coachella on Saturday.
