Despite the vehicle having a flat tire and Knight's condition, he was able to drive Shakur and himself a mile from the site, to Las Vegas Boulevard and Harmon Avenue. They were pulled over by the Bike Patrol, who alerted paramedics through radio.[14] After arriving on the scene, police and paramedics took Knight and a wounded Shakur to the University Medical Center of Southern Nevada.[15] They were pulled over just steps away from the MGM Grand.[14] According to an interview with the music video director Gobi, while at the hospital, he received news from a Death Row marketing employee that the shooters had called the record label and threatened Shakur.[15] Gobi told the Las Vegas police, but said they claimed to be understaffed.[15] No attackers came to the hospital.[15] Shakur said he was dying while being carried into the emergency room.[7] At the hospital, Shakur was heavily sedated, was placed on life support machines, and was ultimately put under a barbiturate-induced coma after repeatedly trying to get out of bed. He was visited by Jones and regained consciousness when she played Don McLean's "Vincent" on the CD player next to his bed.
