Chicago police say they are questioning two potential suspects, one of whom has worked on the Fox TV series Empire, in the ongoing investigation into an alleged hate attack on the black and gay star of the same show, Jussie Smollett.
The spokesman for the city’s police department, Anthony Guglielmi, confirmed on Friday that two Nigerian brothers had been arrested in connection with the investigation. They were being treated as «potential suspects» by detectives who believed there was «probable cause» that they may have engaged in a crime, though no indication was given as to the nature of that possible offence, theguardian.com reports.
