An associate of Marion “Suge

Knight was shot at a Compton, CA Shell gas station yesterday. Alton McDonald,

37, was pumping gas when a dark pickup drove up and started shooting. McDonald

was hit in the upper body and died at Saint Francis Medical Center. According

to police, a man who was with McDonald fled the scene after the shooting. Police

believe there were several people in the car and that at least one of the suspects

got out and opened fire. The killers of McDonald remain at large.

McDonald was allegedly driving a car that was

registered to the current head of Tha Row security and according to sources,

was a major figure in Suge Knight’s organization, although it is not known whether

he was employed by Tha Row. Knight paid his respects to McDonald at the hospital

and according to the Los Angeles Times, also paid his respects to McDonald’s

family at their Compton home.

McDonald was present in Las Vegas with Suge Knight

when Tupac Shakur was shot and killed in 1996. Surveillance camera’s captured

him participating in the infamous scuffle in a hotel lobby, which many theorize

led to Tupac Shakur’s death.
