Former record mogul Suge Knight is suing Kanye West due to
a 2005 incident, according to TMZ.com. In the suit, which names Kanye
and his G.O.O.D. record label, Suge blames Ye for allowing an
individual to sneak a gun past security into his pre-MTV VMAs party
at Miami's The Shore club in 2005.

At the party, the individual managed to shoot Suge in his upper right leg,
which shattered a bone. Knight alleges that he had to undergo months
of physical therapy, suffered permanent impairment in his mobility,
and ended up with significant medical bills - which included the cost
of a private jet to transport him from Miami to Los Angeles.

The lawsuit also claims that Suge lost a 15-carat, $135,000 diamond stud
earring during the incident, which he includes in the suit as "damages
for the loss of use and enjoyment of the earring."
