LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- A Los Angeles court has released the video of Suge Knight plowing into two men with his pickup truck in the murder case against the former rap mogul.



The video, which was released Friday afternoon, shows the truck first backing up and hitting Cle "Bone" Sloan, then it moves forward and slams into Terry Carter, who was killed.



The footage was shot by a surveillance camera monitoring the drive-thru at Tam's Burgers in the 1200 block of West Rosecrans Avenue in Compton.



On Thursday, Superior Court Judge Ronald Coen ruled there's enough evidence for Knight to stand trial on murder and attempted murder charges. Knight has pleaded not guilty and his attorney, Matt Fletcher, says his client was ambushed and was trying to escape from Sloan and others.



Among the evidence made public was photos of Knight after his arrest. Detectives took pictures of him to try to show that he had no serious injuries from the attack.



Sloan also described what happened during an hourlong interview with police at the hospital.



Detective: "You said the vehicle ran you over as it was moving forward?"



Sloan: "For sure - for sure it ran me over."



Detective: "Is there a chance - is there a chance it ran you over moving backward?"



Sloan: "I don't know. I know I saw some white taillights."



Detective: "OK. So how soon before you remember feeling pain, as if you were ran over? Did you see the white taillights?"



Sloan: "When did I see them? It was kind of like I'm on my back, and then it's like I'm just getting rag-dolled."



The entire incident took approximately 30 seconds. The video continues until a paramedic arrives.



When called to the stand in court Monday, Sloan said he didn't remember what happened and refused to be a "snitch."
