Suge Knight was officially charged in the August assault of his girlfriend in Las Vegas recently, as the Clark County Justice Court charged the former hip-hop mogul with three crimes.

According to a report from TMZ.com, Knight was hit with two felony charges of possession of a controlled substance -- for ecstasy and hydrocodone -- and a misdemeanor battery charge.

The charges stem from an August 27 arrest, when police were called after Knight and his girlfriend got into an argument while driving near the Las Vegas Strip, which resulted in Knight hitting a curb and stopping. After which the two got into a physical altercation, and when police arrived, Knight was standing over his longtime girlfriend with a knife in his hand.

"This was apparently Marion Knight's girlfriend that was riding with him in his car at the time. She started punching him while in the car (he was the driver and she was the passenger). In an effort to escape she grabbed the steering wheel and steered it to the curb. That's when she got out of the car and tried to run and he caught up to her," said Las Vegas Lt. Chris Carroll told KLAS-TV at the time of arrest.

At press time, a court date at which he would face the charges was not known.

This man should not be on the streets period. What does he do nowadays besides fuck wit people?! Unless he's living a productive lifestyle were he's generating income, his ass should be locked up. However I still don't understand why any respectable woman would date this crazy ass man. These hos see dollars signs and cling to anything. They are no better then men who cling to these skanky ass video whores. People are lettin muthafuckas put a price on them. This bitch was stupid and it cost her a beat down.
