Chicago police confirmed Thursday that detectives are talking to two persons of interest in connection with the alleged attack on "Empire" actor Jussie Smollett.
Multiple sources have told ABC7 Eyewitness News that police are investigating whether Smollett and the two men staged the attack allegedly because Smollett was being written off of "Empire."
A source familiar with the investigation told the ABC7 I-Team that Smollett failed to appear for an interview with detectives earlier Thursday.
A source briefed on the Smollett investigation confirmed to ABC News that Chicago police are questioning the two persons of interest -- one of whom has appeared on "Empire."

Well, if he wasn’t being written off b rode...
Didn’t we all call hoax the day it happened?
Before
Wanna bet his demise will be one of the higher rated episodes?
It’s over. Your scam fell apart. Time to face the music Jussie. Don’t f*** with the Chicago PD.
Now he’ll be happy as a pear....when he hears the words in prison “spread em”
ARREST that creep!! FAKE CRIME!! HOAX! But he is a GAY BLACK DEMOCRAT....therefore NOTHING will happen to hi,!
Literal drama queen
Yeah, it pinned the obviousometer.
He should reimburse the City of Chicago for this expensive charade.
Then immediately go to jail.
The Drama Queen just got slapped by ABC.
LOL!
You are DREAMING.....absolutely NOTHING will happen to him.....we have 2 justice systems....one for Democrats and one for Republicans!
Ha ha!
The irony is huge with this one, since a major red flag in his fake story is that nobody would recognize or have heard of “Jussie” or his show.
Now it will be, due to all the hyped up fanfare.
The series itself may not be on many more seasons, from what I hear. It started red hot, but for some reason, enthusiasm waned rather quickly. I’ve never watched it.
To me, a Soap Opera is a Soap Opera, no matter what the races. Sometimes I’m in that mood, but not for a while.
CPD did say they would prosecute...
Perhaps it sucked.
Yeah.....riiiiighhht.
You’ve got a very devious person right there. He’s sick in the head. I hope he and his accomplices have the full weight of the law come down on them for this conspiracy.
The noose is tightening, so to speak . . .
