Suge Knight is hospitalized after passing out in his jail cell in Las Vegas on Thursday, October 30. The music producer's lawyers Richard Schonfeld and Julie Raye revealed the story in a court session on Monday in which Knight was supposed to appear.
As reported by Las Vegas Review-Journal, Knight lost consciousness on Thursday. He was transported to University Medical Center after falling and hitting his head. Doctors at the hospital later found blood clot near his lung.
Knight, alongside comedian Katt Williams, is facing a felony robbery charge after a female photographer claimed they forcefully took her camera on September 5. During the Monday court session, a judge set the bail for the founder of Death Row Records at $75,000. He is expected to address the charge in California after he recovers.
Knight and Williams have denied the robbery accusation. Shortly after the arrest, Schonfeld told NY Daily News that his client was in no shape to do the alleged robbery because he was recovering from gunshot wounds. "Mr. Knight had been released from the hospital just seven days earlier. He was in no physical shape to do anything," he said.
