Three suspects fled the scene on foot. One individual exited his vehicle, climbed an embankment, and entered a nearby residential area.<\/p>\n<p>While officers were canvassing the neighborhood, they entered the backyard of a home where one of the suspects had fled. Lauren, whose home is next door and who is not believed to be connected to the suspects, appeared outside with a firearm in hand.<\/p>\n<p>Police say she ignored multiple commands to drop the weapon and allegedly pointed it at officers. They opened fire, striking her in the shoulder.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren then ran back into her home. About 30 minutes later, she and a babysitter emerged with their hands raised and surrendered. She was treated for a non-life-threatening injury at a nearby hospital and later booked for attempted murder. Officers say they recovered a 9mm handgun at the residence.<\/p>\n<p>The original suspect was taken into custody. The two other individuals involved in the hit-and-run remain at large.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren is an author best known for her memoir Some Girls: My Life in a Harem, which details her time as a guest of the Prince of Brunei.
