Weezer rocker Scott Shriner has shrugged off his wife’s shock police shooting and attempted murder arrest.

Shriner simply uttered, 'She's alright, thank you for asking. See you at Coachella' when asked about his wife's wellbeing.
Earlier in the week, Weezer announced on Instagram that they would be performing at Coachella's Mojave Stage during the festival's first weekend, writing: "A desert surprise (cactus emoji) see you at @coachella on the Mojave stage next Saturday @ 3:10."
Jillian Lauren, 51, allegedly pointed a handgun at armed cops after a standoff with officers who were searching for three suspects over an unrelated hit-and-run near her home in Los Angeles.
Cops had launched a manhunt for the trio after they fled from a crash on the freeway into the neighborhood of Eagle Rock.

As officers searched for them, they found Lauren standing outside her home, holding a handgun.
She allegedly opened fire at one of the hit and run suspects breaking into her house.
Police said they yelled at her to drop the gun "numerous times" — but she refused.
One officer is then said to have shot Lauren in the shoulder.
Author Lauren told police she armed herself after hearing about the three men on the run in the neighborhood.
No officers were injured in the shooting.
Lauren was charged with attempted murder and released on a $1million bail bond.

Lauren was later taken to a local hospital by Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics to be treated for a non-life-threatening gunshot wound.
Police searched the home and recovered a 9-millimeter handgun.
The driver of the car that crashed in the initial incident was also detained by California Highway Patrol officers, cited and released.
Two remaining suspects who fled the multi-car smash are yet to be found.
A witness who saw the crash unfold and tried to chase the main suspect told KTLA he was bleeding from his mouth as he fled the freeway in the afternoon.
Lauren shares two adopted children with Weezer rocker husband Shriner.

During this time, a team of cops ran past Lauren's house as the chaos ensued.
Lauren has been married to rock icon Shriner since 2005, and the pair share two adopted children.
