City official asked a judge to ban members of the Mob Piru street gang from congregating in a neighborhood of Compton, according to the Associated Press.

They also asked that the order included co-founder of Death Row Records, Marion "Suge" Knight.

According to officials, Suge was one of the 200 people that were one of the members of Mob Piru. The order would ban them from congregating, drinking alcohol in public, carrying guns or staying out past 10 p.m.

Suge responded by calling the order a "publicity stunt" in an article from the Los Angeles Times. "This is crazy," said Knight. "I'm a 42-year-old businessman, not a gang member. I don't even live in Compton anymore."

The hearing on the matter is to be held today (Jan. 24).
