It is amazing they can find a single person willing to join the police force in California

Cops were pursuing 3 hit and run suspects in Jillian Lauren's neighborhood. Lauren emerged from her house into her fenced backyard brandishing a pistol. Long story short, she ends up racking the pistol, then fires at the cops. They return fire. She's wounded, arrested, and charged with attempted murder.

The Los Angeles Police Commission says the officers involved deviated from policy and acted improperly when they opened fire.

Cops who shot Weezer star’s estranged wife in armed standoff acted improperly

A wild armed showdown that left Weezer bassist Scott Shriner’s estranged wife shot by police has taken a dramatic turn, with the Los Angeles Police Commission finding against officers involved.

Cops shot Jillian Lauren, 52, and charged her with attempted murder in April after she interfered with a wild police chase and drew her gun on officers.

The LAPD Police Commission on Tuesday took up an internal report on Lauren’s shooting produced by the department as a matter of standard policy.

The Commission reviewed the report and determined that the two officers and one sergeant involved in the shooting deviated from policy and the officers acted improperly when they opened fire.

Now LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell will decide what disciplinary action, if any, will be faced by the officers and their sergeant.
