\n\tAuthor and wife of Weezer<\/a> bassist Scott Shriner, Jillian Lauren, who is identified as Jillian Shriner in a police news release, was shot by police on Tuesday and booked for attempted murder.<\/p>\n

\n\tAccording to the news release from the Los Angeles Police Department, the incident occurred Tuesday afternoon after California Highway Patrol requested backup in locating three misdemeanor hit-and-run suspects who fled into a residential neighborhood near Eagle Rock in Los Angeles. LAPD officers approached a home where one of the suspects was seen running and Shriner appeared in the backyard of the residence, armed with a handgun. After officers ordered Shriner to drop the firearm, she refused numerous times, and pointed the handgun toward the officers, per the news release, and a shootout took place during which Shriner was struck by gunfire and retreated back into her residence.<\/p>\n

\n\tShe was later taken into custody and brought to a local hospital, where she was treated for a non-life-threatening gunshot wound. Shriner was not involved in the hit-and-run and was booked for attempted murder. A nine millimeter handgun was recovered from her residence.<\/p>\n

\n\tShriner\u2019s manager did not immediately return Rolling Stone<\/em>\u2018s request for comment.<\/p>\n

\n\tShriner released her first memoir Some Girls: My Life in a Harem<\/em> in 2010 and her second, Everything You Ever Wanted, <\/em>in May 2015. Both books, released under the name Jillian Lauren, are New York Times bestsellers.<\/p>\n
