Weezer bassist and his estranged wife ask $3M for LA home where she shot at cops in a bizarre meltdown

1 hour ago 3

The California hillside retreat where Weezer bassist Scott Shriner’s estranged wife exchanged gunfire with police last spring is officially on the market, The Post has learned. 

Shriner, who is the longest-running bassist for Weezer, and author Jillian Lauren have listed their gated mid-century compound at 1205 Eagle Vista Drive in Los Angeles for $2.95 million. 

Linda Chamberlain of Nourmand & Associates holds the listing. 

The 3,035-square-foot home, tucked behind gates on a nearly half-acre lot, was built in 1954 and comes with five bedrooms, four bathrooms, vaulted beamed ceilings and a heated pool set among mature landscaping.

The property also boasts sweeping canyon and mountain views just minutes from Eagle Rock’s Colorado Boulevard shopping strip, according to the listing.

But the sale comes on the heels of a turbulent chapter for the couple — and an unusual encounter Lauren had with cops. 

Last April, LAPD officers shot Lauren in the shoulder outside the home while they responded to reports of a hit-and-run in the neighborhood, in which she was not involved. 

Police say Lauren pointed a handgun at officers during the encounter, leading to her arrest on suspicion of attempted murder. She was later hit with lesser charges, including discharging a firearm in a grossly negligent manner, and pleaded not guilty in May.

In September, a judge granted her a two-year mental health diversion program that could ultimately wipe the case from her record.

The Los Angeles Police Commission determined earlier this year that officers involved in the shooting acted improperly, with LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell now weighing possible discipline.

Lauren, a bestselling author known for her memoir “Some Girls: My Life in a Harem,” broke her silence on the incident in a December interview with Rolling Stone, describing the ordeal as self-defense.

“I was doing the best I knew to protect my family,” Lauren said. “[The] impulse was self-defense.”

She told the outlet the fallout upended her life entirely.

“My world fell to pieces around me in a heartbeat,” Lauren said.

The couple filed for divorce in early December after 20 years of marriage, with Lauren telling Rolling Stone the split had been building for some time before the shooting pushed things to a breaking point.

“The headlines about the divorce were the ones that really hurt me,” Lauren said. “I was the one who served my husband, but still, to see it in the public was really painful. It was definitely a day [spent] under the covers, blocking out all the noise.”

Despite the upheaval, Lauren said the Eagle Rock property offered a genuine sense of escape during her years there.

“What I’ve loved most about this home is the sense of peace and privacy it provides,” Lauren said in a statement about the listing. “Once you’re behind the gates and surrounded by the trees, it truly feels like your own personal retreat, even though you’re just minutes from the shops and restaurants on Colorado Boulevard and everything Eagle Rock has to offer.”

“Whether spending time by the pool or watching the sunset from the hillside, the house always made me feel connected to the outdoors and it’s been an incredibly special place to call home.”

Reps for Lauren did not respond to The Post’s request for comment.
