LATEST: Fallen rap mogul MARION 'SUGE' KNIGHT has been released from a Las Vegas jail after his arrest on felony assault and domestic violence charges.

The former Death Row Records boss posted $19,000 (GBP10,555) bail on Wednesday (27Aug08) after he was detained at the Clark County jail in the early morning.

Knight was accused of attacking his girlfriend of three years and brandishing a knife following a heated argument in the couple's car in the parking lot on the Las Vegas strip.

The unnamed woman was not stabbed, but was treated at a nearby hospital, where her injuries are not thought to be life-threatening.

According to police reports, Knight had the drugs ecstasy and hydrocodone when he was arrested.

A Clark County Detention Center clerk says records do not indicate when Knight was released.

He is due to attend a hearing at Las Vegas Justice Court on 26 September (08).
