It turns out that the injured man, Cle 'Bone" Sloan, admitted to authorities to having attacked Knight on the night of the incident, bolstering Knight's claims that the actions were acts of self-defense.

Sloan's statement, that he "f-- Knight up," and "punching [Knight] through the driver's-side window and disallowing him to exit the truck," support much of what Knight's defense has claimed, that Knight was simply fleeing the incident with his car when he struck the two men, according to XXL.
