Suge Knight is most widely known for hitting Terry Carter and Cle “Bone” Sloan with his truck in a 2015 incident in Compton, California.
2015 hit-and-run incident
In January 2015, Knight drove his truck through a parking lot near the set of the film “Straight Outta Compton,” striking Cle “Bone” Sloan and running over Terry Carter. Terry Carter died from his injuries, and Sloan was seriously injured but survived.
Legal outcome
Knight ultimately pleaded no contest to voluntary manslaughter for killing Terry Carter and admitted using his truck as a deadly weapon, leading to a 28‑year prison sentence. Prosecutors also treated the impact on Cle “Bone” Sloan as attempted murder and part of the same criminal case.
