Jillian Lauren, wife of Weezer bassist, breaks silence after being shot by police

Jillian Lauren, the wife of Weezer bassist Scott Shriner, has spoken out for the first time about her dangerous run-in with authorities in April that left her with a gunshot wound.

Lauren, 52, who recently filed for divorce from her husband after 22 years of marriage, made headlines earlier this year when she got caught in the crosshairs of a police chase. At the time, Los Angeles police officers chased three misdemeanor hit-and-run suspects who had left a freeway crash scene and ran into a residential neighborhood of Eagle Rock in east Los Angeles. Lauren was not involved in the original car chase.
