Jillian Lauren, the wife of Weezer bassist Scott Shriner, was shot by Los Angeles police and charged with attempted murder after allegedly pointing a gun at officers during a pursuit of unrelated hit-and-run suspects. This incident occurred just weeks after Lauren, 51, underwent a complicated surgery related to her cancer diagnosis, which she had publicly shared on social media.
