Ice Cube and Dr. Dre can breathe a sigh of relief after being dismissed from the wrongful death lawsuit that had been filed against them by the family of Terry Carter.
Carter died on January 29, 2015, when Suge Knight hit him with his truck at Tam's burger restaurant in Compton. Knight was in the middle of an altercation with actor Cle "Bone" Sloan, who was also injured in the hit-and-run incident, when Carter was killed.

The fight between Knight and Sloan started on the Compton set of the "Straight Outta Compton" movie, before spreading to Tam's.

TMZ reports that Carter's family included Cube and Dre in the lawsuit because they believed the music icon's knowingly hired gang members as security. Sloan is a former member of L.A.'s Athens Park Bloods.
The lawsuit against Knight is moving forward. The former Death Row Records CEO is currently sitting in a Los Angeles jail cell awaiting trial for one count of murder, one count of attempted murder and two counts of hit-and-run.
He faces up to life in prison if convicted.
