Suge Knight treated in hospital after hotel brawl
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 17 February 2009
Marion ‘Suge’ Knight has been admitted to hospital to receive treatment for injuries sustained in a fight in a hotel in Arizona, police confirmed yesterday.
The former Death Row Records chief got into an altercation at the W hotel near Phoenix, which began with “heated words in the VIP area” and ended in a brawl. Officers called to the scene after the fight escalated saw a man punch Knight twice in the head, and subsequently used Taser guns to bring things under control.
Two men, Robert Carnes and Leon Anderson were arrested and charged with aggravated assault and disorderly conduct. Knight was apparently treated for facial injuries, but full details have not been released.
