"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 Lt. Chris Carroll, Metro.

According to the arrest report, the victim, Melissa Isaac, told officers the two started arguing after he got a phone call from another woman. Isaac said she confronted him and that Knight started hitting her.

She told police once she got out of the car, Knight hit and kicked her and that she blacked out. A witness called police, and Knight was arrested.

Knight is booked for assault with a deadly weapon, battery, domestic violence and possession of a controlled substance.

Knight is the co-founder of Death Row Records. He made headlines in Las Vegas in 1996 when rap artist Tupac Shakur was murdered in a drive by shooting. Shakur was a passenger in Knight's car at the time of the shooting.
