Weezer bassist’s wife shot by cops, booked for attempted murder after interfering with wild police chase

Weezer bassist Scott Shriner’s wife, Jillian Shriner, was shot during a traffic chase in Los Angeles, and later booked for attempted murder.

On Tuesday afternoon, the Los Angeles Police Department responded to a hit-and-run on a freeway near the Eagle Rock neighborhood, according to a LAPD press release obtained by Page Six.

Three suspects involved fled the scene and headed toward a residential neighborhood where cops quickly barricaded off the area.

A woman, identified as Jillian, then allegedly came out of her home with a handgun.

The 51-year-old writer was allegedly told several times to drop her weapon, which she refused and pointed it at officers.

She was then shot in an undisclosed area and rushed into her home.

Jillian later exited and was treated for her non-life-threatening gunshot wound at a local hospital. She was ultimately booked for attempted murder.

Reps for Jillian weren’t immediately available to Page Six for comment.
