Details of Weezer Bassist Scott Shriner’s Wife Jillian’s Attempted Murder Revealed by LAPD; Raised Pistol to Firing of Shots

Jillian Shriner, an author and the spouse of Weezer’s bassist, Scott Shriner, made quite a stir when news outlets reported that she had been shot by law enforcement in her shoulder, right here in Los Angeles.

Currently, it’s important to share an updated piece of information. The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) has made public video recordings from their body cameras, and these recordings clearly demonstrate that the officers involved in the incident with Jillian on April 8th did indeed open fire, as reported by Newsweek.

In the video, officers were on the lookout for three people suspected of being involved in a hit-and-run incident in the Eagle Rock district of Los Angeles. During their search, they encountered Shiner, who was said to have a handgun in her backyard at that moment.

In the recorded video, it appears that the officers are heard urging Shriner to relinquish the gun. One of them reportedly told her, “Madam, we’re here to assist you.” Later on, an officer is said to have warned her, “You’ll get shot, it’s the police,” followed by a request for her to surrender the weapon.

However, it seemed that the author failed to comply with the police’s instructions. The media outlet stated that, as one of the police officers claimed, Shriner drew her weapon.

According to the article in the publication, an officer stated that she raised her weapon without aiming it at them, instead she cocked it or prepared it for firing. Another officer exclaimed, “Wow, she chambered a round!

Hearing those gunshots just now sent a chill down my spine! Moments later, I overheard an officer shouting that rounds had been discharged, followed by a plea for assistance. At the moment, it’s all hazy about who pulled the trigger first.

According to reports from the outlet, authorities stated that the writer suffered a shoulder injury after being struck and subsequently sought refuge within her own premises. Subsequently, Shriner yielded to the police and was taken into custody on charges of attempted murder.

1. Additionally, the author was also escorted to the hospital.

2. Moreover, a 911 call transcript emerged between Shriner and the operator where she apparently stated that she possessed a firearm, claiming he told her to lower it.

Shriner declared, “I told him to drop his gun. Instead, he fired at me.” The authorities found a 9mm handgun on her premises.

According to the authorities, one out of the three initially suspected in the hit-and-run incident has been apprehended. The remaining two suspects, however, remain at large.
