Former Death Row Records owner Marion "Suge" Knight's life is reportedly on the line with a potentially fatal blood clot.

According to reports, Knight, who has been charged with murder in a crime from last week, has been handcuffed to a hospital bed.

Suge Knight had way more than a panic attack after court Tuesday … he was having an intense physical reaction to a potentially fatal blood clot … TMZ has learned. We’re told the clots began forming after Suge was shot 6 times last summer at 1OAK during VMA weekend. Our sources say Suge has now been moved to Long Beach Memorial where doctors have put him on blood thinners … but it’s clearly a serious situation. (TMZ)

Suge appeared in court Tuesday (February 3) to address his criminal charges.

Reports claim an ambulance took Knight to a nearby hospital after he experienced chest pains at his appearance.

Suge was in the lockup area next to the courtroom when he began experiencing chest pains. But it appears it’s not his heart … it’s his nerves. This is the second time Knight has been taken to the hospital while in police custody — he passed out in a jail cell last November as a result of a blood clot. (TMZ)

A police spokesperson confirmed his no-bail hold Monday (February 2).

Sheriff’s Department spokeswoman Nicole Nishida told The Times that Knight’s bail was pulled for the following reasons: “Possible flight risk, three-strike candidate, possible witness intimidation issues and his criminal past.” Knight is due to make his first court appearance Tuesday, Blatt said.
