The shooting occurred at around 1:30 this morning at 1OAK nightclub in West Hollywood. It is unclear who was responsible for the shooting. It is also unclear if Suge Knight was the intended target. Many sources are speculating that the shooters were actually aiming for Chris Brown.
Katie Clendon, who was at the nightclub at the time of the shooting, writes on twitter:
Literally can’t believe what I just witnessed. Someone tried to fire shots at Chris Brown at 1oak. Speechless.

Brown may have been the target of the shooting but he escaped the incident without injury. The R&B singer took to Twitter shortly after Suge Knight was shot to say how disappointed he was that someone decided to resort to violence.
It’s disappointing that we as a society can’t have fun or enjoy ourselves without any altercations sometimes. Miss me with the bullshit!!!

Suge Knight reportedly walked out of the nightclub under his own power before he was taken away in an ambulance. The music producer is reportedly in ICU and is expected to survive.
