Weezer may be making headlines for their upcoming Coachella performance, but the band’s name has also surfaced in the news for another reason.
Scott Shriner, the band’s bassist, is facing public attention after his wife, Jillian “Lauren” Shriner, was shot by the Los Angeles Police Department during a manhunt for a suspect she was reportedly not involved with. Authorities later claimed she pointed a weapon at officers, which led to a shootout where she was struck in the shoulder. She was subsequently booked for attempted murder.

Jillian is a mother to two sons, Tariku and Jovanni Starshine, whom she shares with Scott. She has spoken openly about their family life on social media, even writing a blog post about the days they officially adopted their sons.
