VIDEO : Two Suspects Arrested In Connection To Attack Of 'Empire' Star Jussie Smollett

Two suspects have been arrested in connection to an attack reported by 'Empire' actor Jussie Smollett, says CNN. A Chicago Police Department spokesman said the two men arrested were the same men previously being viewed as potential suspects. The suspects are reportedly two Nigerian brothers, and one of the brothers appeared on the show 'Empire.' Smollett says he was attacked on January 29 by two men who shouted "racial and homophobic slurs" at him. One attacker allegedly put a rope around his neck and poured an unknown chemical substance on him.
