Suge Knight In Hospital After Jailhouse Fall


Suge Knight has been hospitalized, according to TMZ. The incident happened during Knights stint in jail at the Clark County Detention Center, where he was placed after he was accused of assaulting a female photographer and stealing her camera.

Inside sources told TMZ that Suge Knight was in his jail cell when he fainted, causing him to fall. Knight was then was taken to the prison infirmary unit where he fainted again, leaving injuries to his head and spine, according to the Las Vegas Review Journal.

Prison officials transported Suge Knight, whose real name is Marion Knight, to the University Medical Center to undergo observation. Sources close to the case say that Suge Knight had not taken his medication, which could be responsible for the fainting spells. As of now, Knight is on blood thinners due to a blood clot in the lungs.

The symptoms disclosed could be indicative of diabetes, high blood pressure, or both. No word on how long Suge Knight will be in the hospital. Suge Knight has been in the news since the story broke last week that he had assaulted and robbed a female paparazzo.

Katt Williams was also implicated in the robbery. According to records, the incident took place on September 5 after the female photographer tried to take a picture of Suge’s son. The victim was identified as Kat of Kat Tales TV.

Kat, the female photog, stated that she decided to go public with the incident because she was physically injured and threatened by the giant rap mogul. She also stated that the incident has affected her money.

“I have no choice but to come forward. I have suffered serious injuries and my ability to earn a living has been impeded.”

The female photog also stated that she cannot stand by and be a silent victim. She denies trying to take a photo of Knight, his son, or comedian Katt Williams. Last week, Inquisitr reported on the arrest of Suge Knight and his companion Katt Williams. If convicted, Knight faces 30 years in prison. The Suge Knight family left the following message for all his fans.

“The family of Suge Knight ask that you keep Suge in your prayers and to stray away from the negativity portrayed by the media. He’s done a lot of things for the community and the culture as a whole so we ask that you respect that.”
