According to the latest reports, law enforcement is examining footage to determine if Suge’s actions were intentional.

Authorities were looking at video footage Saturday that could show whether the rap mogul intentionally ran down two men with his truck in a fight Thursday in California. Terry Carter was killed, and a source said Cle (Bone) Sloan remained hospitalized with serious injuries. Knight’s attorney says he accidentally hit the men while trying to escape an attack, while authorities allege he intentionally ran them over. (New York Daily News)

Despite the surveillance buzz, there are also reports which claim it will make little difference.

The owner of Tam’s — the Compton hamburger joint where Suge ran over and killed Terry Carter — tells us the security camera trained at the parking lot doesn’t work. He got nothin’. There’s a Wells Fargo nearby but we went out there and the cameras don’t face in the direction of Tam’s parking lot. Ditto the Louisiana Fried Chicken joint and the Rite Aid. (TMZ)

According to reports, Knight turned himself over to California police Friday (January 30).

Sgt. Diane Hecht of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s information office said Knight was arrested at about 3 a.m. and is being held on $2 million bail. Hecht says Knight is being held at the West Hollywood sheriff’s station. Knight turned himself in to authorities early Friday after his attorney said the rap mogul accidentally ran over and killed a friend and injured another man as he fled attackers. (Fox News)

Knight’s attorney James Blatt has already spoken out on the situation.

“We are confident that once the investigation is completed, he will be totally exonerated.” (Associated Press)

Footage of Suge turning himself over to police has also surfaced.

Buzz about Knight being on the run heated up the Internet Thursday (January 29).

9:30 PM PT — Cops found Suge’s truck abandoned in a parking lot in the Westwood section of L.A. It’s been impounded, but still no sign or word from Suge or his attorney. 8:15 PM PT — Cops just had a press conference … and believe two fights occurred. They said the first fight went down on the movie set — and then a second fight happened at a nearby burger joint … resulting in the fatality. Cops also said witnesses claim the car backed up and ran over the victim twice before fleeing the scene. (TMZ)
