Weezer’s bass player, Scott Shriner, should always play with the group in Coachella despite an earlier incident this week when his wife was killed by police and arrested for attempted murder, said a source close to the group Roller.
According to the press release from the Los Angeles police department, the incident occurred on Tuesday afternoon, April 8, after the California Highway Patrol asked for a safeguarding three suspects of offense of offense that fled in a residential district of Eagle Rock in Los Angeles. The LAPD officers approached the rear of a house where one of the suspects was seen in the course of execution, and Jillian Lauren Shriner would have appeared in the courtyard of a neighboring residence, armed with a handgun.
After the police ordered Shriner to drop the gun, she refused several times and pointed out the handgun to the officers, according to the press release, and a shooting took place, during which Shriner was struck by gunshots and withdrew in her residence.
“At that time, there were given orders, several orders to drop the pistol, to drop the weapon, unfortunately, that led to a shooting involving an officer,” said detective Meghan Aguilar at a press conference on Wednesday.
Shriner and a baby-sitter finally left the residence and went to the police; Shriner was taken to a neighboring hospital and treated for a non -deadly shot injury. A 9 mm handgun has been recovered from his residence.
Jillian Lauren Shriner, an author with two New York Times The bestsellers, were then reserved for attempted murder – the police alleged that they drew her weapon over them before she was slaughtered – and after the indictment, she was released on bail of a million dollars.
Despite the incident, as the saying says, the show must continue, and Weezer – which has themselves been a late addition to the Coachella range to replace the FKA twigs – proceeded to their festival obligation. Neither Weezer nor Shriner publicly commented on the incident.
Weezer is still ready for a number of other festivals, including Kilby Block Party, Soundside in September and when we were young in October. During the summer, they are planned for a multitude of festivals dates in Europe, including the Glastonbury Festival of the United Kingdom.
