Dr Dre and Ice Cube have been named in Suge Knight's wrongful death lawsuit, after he allegedly ran over his friend Terry Carter during a promotional shoot for NWA biopic Straight Outta Compton (below).

Claims made by Knight's representatives say that both Dr Dre and Ice Cube hired known gang members to provide security for location shoots. It goes on to say that the gang members incited a fight and threatened Suge, causing him to accelerate through the Burger joint parking lot at speed and run over the victim. 

His representatives are also suing Tam's Burgers, where the crime took place, claiming that violent crimes regularly happen in the parking lot, meaning they should have had security on the premises.
