Jussie Smollett did not tell police in his first interview that his attackers yelled 'this is MAGA country' before jumping him, the original police report has revealed, and did not want to involve the authorities.

The 36-year-old actor was walking home from Subway to his apartment when he was jumped by two men who were dressed entirely in black, the report, which DailyMail.com obtained a copy of on Tuesday, reveals.

They got his attention by calling him 'Empire f****t n*****' then battered him 'about the face' and 'poured an unknown chemical substance on him.'

One of the men, described as a 'primary aggressor' was wearing a black mask, he told the cops.

Smollett's manager, Brandon Z. Moore, previously said that he was on the phone to him when the incident happened and that he heard the attackers shouting 'This is MAGA country!'.

Smollett told the police that detail in a follow-up the next day. He also declined to give his phone to police for them to verify that he and his manager were on a call when the attack took place.

The actor was left bruised and with minor injuries. After being beaten, Smollett returned to his apartment, keeping a white rope around his neck which he told the police the pair had put on him.

Forty minutes later, officers arrived at the apartment at the request of a 60-year-old man.

The 200lb man, who was previously described to DailyMail.com as an 'associate' of the actor, insisted that they call the authorities. He and one other person who was also in the apartment greeted officers in Smollett's apartment building lobby.

What an odd detail. 200lb? Not interesting. Not unusual. Why throw that in for "color"?

FOX television needs to boot Smollett off the Empire TV show at the first opportunity.

Now this is a strange case, insofar as, in the United States, with about 330 million people, much worse things happen by the hour and I don’t know if the country will stand after this devastating blow.

What makes this inconvenient event, if it really happened, such an extraordinary thing?

I take it he went cruising for the kind of sex those people engage in and it might not have ended the way he wished.

Something about this incident smells. I don’t know if authorities will ever get to the bottom of it, but I suspect that much of his story is made up and what happened probably involved people he knew.

Methinks that, the people who ‘jumped him’ (if that really happened), did not appreciate his ‘advances’ in a night club or wherever he was at.

Yup. Either that or he (and I suspect someone else) cooked it all up while in a TDS hissy fit.

Where is the stained clothing?

Where is the evidence of bleach being spilled in the street? Surely it must have splashed on the sidewalk, snow, whatever - and collected as evidence?

The CPD has found about as much as Mueller...

(I know for political reasons, the cops aren't allowed to give up the investigation).

Specifying the person’s weight is supposed to add to the credibility of the report, rather as if we had known his name, occupation, criminal history, connection to the situation, etc.

The lies just keep getting bigger and bigger.

When it finally comes out that this is one big Fake Hate Crime - how much you want to bet the DA won’t touch this with a 1000 foot pole and turn the tables on grinder boy?

Maybe he is only 5 feet tall, 200 lbs would be noticed.
