Video of Marion "Suge" Knight ploughing into two men with his pickup truck and other key evidence in the former rap music mogul's murder case was released by a Los Angeles court.

Superior Court Judge Ronald Coen reviewed the items before determining last week that Knight should stand trial.

Among the evidence made public was a recording of an hour-long interview with the man who survived being struck by Knight's vehicle, and photographs of the Death Row Records co-founder after his arrest.

The video of Knight running over the two men in late January was shot by a surveillance camera monitoring the drive-through at a burger stand. It is likely to be used by prosecution and defence during Knight's trial.

Coen ruled on Thursday that there was enough evidence for Knight, 49, to stand trial on charges that he killed Terry Carter and attempted to kill Cle "Bone" Sloan during the car park confrontation.

Knight has pleaded not guilty. His attorney has said Knight was fleeing an ambush by Sloan and others when he hit the men outside the burger stand in the Compton area.
