Marion "Suge" Knight will stand trial on murder and attempted-murder charges after the former rap music mogul struck two men with his pickup truck in January, killing one and seriously injuring the other.

Superior Court Judge Ronald Coen made the ruling Thursday after concluding a hearing that focused heavily on testimony from Cle "Bone" Sloan, who was hit outside a Compton burger stand. The judge also reduced bail from $25 million to $10 million.

Following the hearing, Knight's lawyer, Matthew Fletcher, told TMZ he expects his client will now be able to make bail, possibly as early as today.

Sloan told detectives that he attacked Knight but testified Monday that he didn't remember the fight and did not want to be a "snitch." Prosecutors played Sloan's statement to police, which offered a lucid, detailed account of the events Jan. 29 that led up to the deadly encounter.
