LAS VEGAS - Hip hop mogul Marion “Suge” Knight hasfaced a Las Vegas judge on a traffic warrant following his arrest as a fugitive in a California robbery case.

Records show Thursday's court appearance for the 49-year-old founder of Death Row Records stems from a suspended licence charge in Las Vegas.

Knight and comedian Katt Williams were arrested and charged with robbery Wednesday after a celebrity photographer reported the men stole her camera September 5 in Beverly Hills. Williams was arrested in the Los Angeles area.

Knight, who was arrested in Las Vegas, is due for a Monday extradition hearing on that case.

He has a prior assault with a deadly weapon conviction and could face up to 30 years in prison if he's convicted of the California robbery charge. - Sapa-AP
