    SANTA MONICA, California — The Santa Monica Police Department issued a warrant for the arrest of G-Unit rapper Young Buck on Tuesday (November 16) in connection with the melee at Monday's Vibe Awards.

    After reviewing a videotape of the fight, investigators believe Buck (born David Darnell Brown) stabbed 26-year-old Los Angeles native Jimmy James Johnson after Johnson assaulted Dr. Dre during the ceremony at the Santa Monica Municipal Airport hangar (see "Dr. Dre Attacked, Man Stabbed During Melee At Vibe Awards").

    Buck, who will be charged with assault with a deadly weapon, was one of three men seen on the videotape with knives. The other two have not been identified.

    "Mr. Brown is seen lunging over another male and swinging the knife at Mr. Johnson's upper body while Johnson is looking away from him," Santa Monica Police Department spokesperson J.T. Butts Jr. said at a press conference Tuesday (November 16). "He is clearly depicted holding the knife after the assault and was a number of fight participants sprayed by pepper spray. Brown then fled the scene and was not identified until earlier this morning. ... We are asking Mr. Brown to surrender himself to the Santa Monica Police Department immediately."

    The encounter began around 7:25 p.m., when Johnson approached Dr. Dre pretending to ask for an autograph and began punching him several times.

    "As private security persons attempted to control Mr. Johnson, several males attempted to assault him," Butts said. "Two uniformed officers attempted to intervene and they themselves became victims when unidentified men threw chairs at them."

    James was stabbed in the chest and suffered a collapsed lung. He was rushed to a local hospital and is in stable condition, Butts said.

    James, who is on parole, has not yet been interviewed, nor has Dr. Dre. "We have a call in to him, he has not responded, but we will interview him at his earliest convenience," Butts said. "This investigation is continuing and we are in the process of identifying several other assault suspects. We have a lot of people to interview."

    Butts said he has no idea what sparked the assault and made no connection between Johnson and Suge Knight, a longtime Dre rival who attended the awards.

    Initially only two officers intervened, but Butts said 56 officers were on the scene within minutes, including more than 30 who were patrolling the Vibe Awards. Metal detectors were used at the doors, Butts said.

    Young Buck has several arrests in Nashville on his record for minor offenses, Butts said. A spokesperson for the G-Unit had no comment.

    Is it still the "East Coast vs. West Coast" mentality dominating the rap genre? These people need to grow up and quit acting like immature jerks.

    I guess I'm the minority in I don't really see how you can blast an entire type of music because of this incident. They didn't even start it, some idiot ran up and assaulted Dr. Dre.

    But if anyone did that to Springsteen, and someone he knew attacked the attacker, I don't think you would feel the same way. Although, violence is never the answer. Oh well

    *sarcasm*
    Your right, most rap artists are completely rational people.

    Danzig shoves the lead singer of another band and that guy knocked Danzig on his arse end of story (unless you were Danzig who I'm sure lost big time face in front of his weightlifting bros) but that was it.

    That's the whole thing all celebs have images but most rappers images and feeling they have to live up to these images is what is stupid and causes this type of behaviour. If you thing the entire scenario wouldn't have played out differenty with the Boss and his "crew" then you are stupid.

    I have a question for you:

    Why are the only idiots who run up and assault people at awards shows rappers?

    and....

    Why do these types of incidents only happen at rap awards shows?

    I've got a clue for you.....

    No Talent Ass Clowns

    That is all. Carry on.

    Or maybe it's because they are BLACK and we all know african american males aged 16-26 account for the most crime in the Country. :rolleyes:

    I thought they were changing their name to "Tha Row Records" or did they change it and then change it back because it sounds stupid, because it does sound stupid.

    I love how people try to portray stupid acts of violence like this as justification to why the music they don't like requires no 'talent'.

    For some reason, I don't see the connection.
