Newly released video captured the wild hit-and-run crash in Los Angeles that set off a chaotic series of events leading to the arrest of Weezer bassist Scott Shriner’s wife on attempted murder charges.
The crazy footage shows a driver losing control of his car and taking out several other motorists on the freeway — causing cops to swarm the Eagle Rock neighborhood in search for the motorist, who fled the scene of the three-car crash clutching his clothes and a guitar.

Jillian Shriner, wife of Weezer bassist Scott Shriner, was arrested in the wake of the chaos. KTLA“I thought I was in an episode of GTA. Honestly, that stuff just doesn’t happen you know,” David Gonzalez, who caught the chaos on camera, told ABC7.
In a bizarre turn of events, instead of locating the hit-and-run perp, police came across the wife of Weezer’s bassist, Jillian Shriner, 51, brandishing a handgun in the front yard of her home.
Officers ordered Shriner to drop the gun numerous times, but she refused and pointed it directly at the officers, police said.
Shriner allegedly fired her gun at officers, prompting them to return fire, striking her in the shoulder. She was taken into custody but released after posting a $1 million bond on Wednesday. Her next court hearing is set for April 30.
Shriner was taken into custody and now faces an attempted murder charge.
Cops swarmed the Eagle Rock neighborhood in search of the hit-and-run motorist. KTLACops later caught the perp, who had stripped down to his boxers in an attempt to blend in while watering the lawn of a home.
Meanwhile, the cameraman, Gonzalez, was left astonished by the outcome following the dramatic crash.
“Ripple effect. At the moment I had no clue what happened after but it’s crazy how just one man can cause so much chaos,” he said.
Gonzalez injured his back, broke his arm and had to have surgery after the crash, which also wrecked the Tesla he bought a mere two weeks earlier.
