Suge Knight Turns Himself In To Authorities After Killing Friend In Hit-And-Run

Former rap mogul, Marion "Suge" Knight has been arrested on suspicion of murder in connection with a Thursday hit-and-run that killed a man in Compton, California, authorities said Friday. He is being held with bail set at $2 million. If the allegations against him for the incident prove true, the convicted felon could find himself behind bars for a long, long time. Police believe Knight and some other men were involved in an argument on the set of the upcoming N.W.A biopic "Straight Outta Compton" on Thursday afternoon.

When the men went to lunch at Tam's Burger's 20 minutes later, Knight, 49, is believed to have followed the men in his red pickup truck before running two of them over in the parking lot.

Knight's lawyer says his client 'accidentally' hit the men but the incident is being treated as a homicide. Lt. John Corina of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department detective's unit said:

"Looks like he drove backwards and struck the victims and drove forwards and struck them again. The people we talked to say it looked like it was an intentional act. They obviously knew each other. They got into some kind of verbal altercation and it escalated. The man who was killed was 55 and the surviving victim is 51. His condition is unknown."
