The suspects --- who had not been arrested at press time -- then reportedly attacked Smollett, punching him in the face and pouring an "unknown chemical substance" on him.
At some point during the attack, one suspect wrapped a rope around Smollett's neck. The two suspects fled the scene and Smollet transported himself to Northwestern Hospital where he is reported to be in good condition.
