“Empire" actor Jussie Smollett was attacked in the early morning hours on Tuesday in what Chicago police are calling a possible hate crime.

Smollett was attacked by two people "yelling out racial and homophobic slurs" and "poured an unknown chemical substance on the victim," police said.

According to police, one of Smollett's alleged attackers also put a rope around his neck. Both fled the scene.

Smollett took himself to Northwestern Hospital and "is in good condition," police told CNN.

Later Tuesday, CNN's Don Lemon spoke to Smollett and a mutual friend who was at the hospital with the actor. Smollett confirmed the incident took place.

He was shaken and angry that an attack like this could happen. Smollett told CNN he fought back at the attackers.

"Given the severity of the allegations, we are taking this investigation very seriously and treating it as a possible hate crime," the police statement said.

Smollett has starred on Fox's "Empire" since 2015. He plays Jamal, a successful singer in the musical Lyon family. Like his character, Smollett identifies as gay.

"We are deeply saddened and outraged to learn that a member of our 'Empire' family, Jussie Smollett, was viciously attacked last night," a representative of 20th Century Fox Television and Fox Entertainment said in a statement to CNN. "We send our love to Jussie, who is resilient and strong, and we will work with law enforcement to bring these perpetrators to justice. The entire studio, network and production stands united in the face of any despicable act of violence and hate -- and especially against one of our own."

A representative for GLAAD told CNN the organization has reached out Smollett to offer assistance and support.

"Jussie is a true champion for LGBTQ people and is beloved by the community and allies around the world," a GLAAD spokesperson said in a statement.

How long before CPD are called racist for investigating his claim too much and that they would have just believed a white person?

 

[escapegoat]

What is Nashville's analog to Terrence Howard ?

The secret gay cowboy?

'Cause that dude is the most badly closeted actor since Kevin Spacey.

Wonder if he goes to the Ram Ranch?

 

[Mrs Paul]

Maybe he ran into Liam Neeson?

 

[TowinKarz]

Little bit of side sperg going on. Deray McKesson, the black Shaun King, accuses local news reporter Rafer Wiegel of spreading misinformation on his buddy Jussie’s case, and acting a stooge for CPD.

A reporter reporting what the police say? What's journalism come to?!

Though to be fair, in CURRENT YEAR, a lot of people in the media don't know that's part of the job.

The strange paradox of the black community and the police. When someone has a crime committed against them, they will demand the police investigate, but at the same time will do as little to help that investigation as possible. Others will likewise no cooperate with the police because they don't trust them and they don't want to be snitches. Then they say the police don't care about them because police investigation go no where.

Oh yessssssssssssssssssssss

Whew, among the moments in history I wish I could have witnessed, one of them would be Jussie Smollett taking some dollar-store brand clothesline out of the package and trying to tie it into a noose, only to get frustrated and call the cops with a much sloppier and less racist sort of knot on display.

For enhanced entertainment I want them to find the packaging for that rope in a garbage bin somewhere with his or his manager’s fingerprints on them. Unlikely, but just imagine. Or even better they find a high quality shot of him holding the package.

Oh please tell me one of them was stupid enough to have bought it using traceable payment.

God I'm loving these little carefully-worded leaks as the CPD dances around spelling out "BULLSHIT" in so many words. I'm gonna win so much damn money in my office pool over this.

So just Shaun King then?

You know he tried and failed to tie a noose. That would not happen to a person who came to lynch. How are you going to string someone up when you can't tie a simple noose? What kind of threat is tossing a clothesline at someone?

How can he be so dumb. Gay 2pac, what a fucking retard. Has anyone checked his music? Dude can't even sing. He sounds as stupid as he looks.

Words cannot sufficiently express how badly I want this histrionic faggot's story to be unraveled by ineptitude. It will be the culmination of so many things others have said would eventually happen on this sociopolitical trajectory that even if it doesn't open more eyes to the horseshit going down the online schadenfreude will keep my family fed for generations.

"didn't necessarily resemble a noose," I fucking told you bro.

 

[Pargon]

"didn't necessarily resemble a noose," I fucking told you bro.

The scenario I keep imagining is that this idiot is as intelligent as your average housecat, he got himself tangled up in a curtain pull and his manager had to come and cut him free before he asphyxiated.

 

[Ruin]

So he couldn't even be assed to tie a noose and just draped a piece of clothesline over his shoulders?

This nigga lazy.

 

[not william stenchever]

We know he wasn't learning how to tie a noose with this helpful song because it's about 30 seconds too long for the 60 second gap in surveillance that the police reported.

 

[Man of the Sea]

Police subpoenaed Jussie.

Argh come on, why you do this to me bro?

If that video has any gems of useful info, or anything beyond some sped reading the same shit we've already read, please, preferably quote it, or at the very fucking least give a time where something important happens.

Some retarded dude reading something to me is not more informative than reading it myself. His retarded opinions along the way are equally worthless.
