Marion “Suge” Knight was involved in a hit-and-run this afternoon (January 29) that left one man dead and another injured in Compton, California. The law offices of James E. Blatt, Knight’s attorney confirmed to HipHopDX.
According to TMZ, Knight was in an altercation with two men on the set of a film project that took place on the 1200 block of West Rosecrans Avenue.
The publication also reports that while attempting to leave the scene following the fight, Knight jumped into his car and accidentally ran over his friend, Terry Carter who was attempting to get into the vehicle with Knight. Carter was later pronounced dead. The other victim’s condition is unknown.
Knight’s lawyer’s have yet to confirm whether he was driving the vehicle.
A separate Los Angeles Times report states that the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department is “investigating the hit-and-run as a homicide, not a traffic accident.”
ABC News reports that Knight claims he was attacked by the two individuals and that he is expected to turn himself into authorities.
Reportedly both Dr. Dre and Ice Cube were on hand for the film project but had already left the set when the incident occurred.
Knight’s lawyers also confirmed to HipHopDX that an official statement will be issued shortly.
Videos of the aftermath obtained by TMZ and ABC News are included below.

Rap isn’t for black people anymore. You just can’t do it that well. Go and bang some drums and bring a new art that we whites can later perfect like we did with rap.
Kinda like how white men aren’t good a smashing white women anymore. Don’t worry, it’s been taken care of.
Who cares lol they’re all pampered princesses anyway. We’ve been smashing ebony babes for literally millennia. Literally millennia. A few white girls who can’t get a good white man anyway is a drop in the bucket.
That cycle runs both ways. Come off your pedestal.
but you’re here commenting on a black person’s article, talking about blacks, trying to claim white supremacy. only a coward would do that instead of going into their community and voicing their opinion to those people directly they swear they’re better than.
Suge Knight is one stupid mother fucker, he just can’t stay away from drama and now his friend is dead, probably because of his actions.
Throw the POS in jail and let the fucker rot.
