I was just watching the news and they said breaking news: Rap Producing Mogul Suge Marion Knight has been shot in the leg and has been hospitalized. This was in Florida during a party hosted by KanyeWest. Someone paste a link... and I am sorry, its not 'Bay Area', but I was in the forum and just created a new thread without checking... late.
Suge Knight Shot

Marion "Suge" Knight was reportedly shot inside of a Miami night Club during a Kanye West-sponsored party for MTV's Video Music Awards, according to people in attendance.
The specifics are unclear as is the Death Row founder's medical condition, but Knight was reportedly attending the Shore Club in Miami where Kanye West, Common and John Legend held a G.O.O.D. Music party.
Unsubstantiated sources at the Shore Club told AllHipHop.com that at least six shots were fired and the shooter was apprehended at the scene.
Julia Beverly, publisher/editor of OZONE Magazine, was headed inside the club when she said police rushed inside. Beverly said that shortly afterwards, word spread that Knight was shot and possibly killed.
Still, she said the details were nebulous and accounts of the shooting varied.
"I don't think anybody knows exactly what happened. I was walking in and a cop shoved me back and police are telling me Suge got shot," Beverly told AllHipHop.com. "They had about three or four blocks taped off. Some people are talking out of their a** and there are rumors flying every where."
Another eyewitness inside of the club when the shooting took place spoke under the condition of anonymity.
"We heard shooting. Everybody got on the floor, but you couldn't see anything. I couldn't see, but I believe Suge was hit in the leg. I didn't see it but that's what people said," the witness said.
There were approximately 600 people inside of the Shore Club people at the time of the shooting.
Police were not available for comment as of press time.
