CABRERA: Another twist in the alleged attack against "Empire" star, Jussie Smollett. The two men arrested were let go and no charges were filed against them, leaving all of us with many more questions than answers. CNN's Ryan Young has the latest.</s>RYAN YOUNG, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Ana, this case continues to have a lot of twist and turns. And 48 hours after arresting two men, who they call persons of interest, those men have been released. We're told both are Nigerian brothers picked up at the airport Wednesday night. Police did execute a search warrant. They got a lot of evidence from there, but since talking to them, they decided to release the two men. Since that point, we have not heard from the actor. We reached out to the representation to try to figure out what they think about this arrest and the fact that the men were released. We have not heard back from him. Jussie Smollett called the Chicago department to say, his representative called the Chicago department. They say, on January 29, as Jussie coming back from the subway, he was attacked. He claims he had a rope put around his neck and fought back against the two attackers wearing a mask. Since then, 12 detectives have been working to try to figure out who attacked him. The image of the two persons of interests where put out about a day later. Since then, detectives were trying to track those people down. Now we know, even after being able to use Ride Share technology and taxi cab receipts, they got these two men in the area. They talked to the men and decided they were not going to press charge on them. They did allude to the fact that there's new evidence in this case. They're not sharing that with us. It will be interesting to see if they get a chance to talk to the actor again to try to put the pieces of the story together.</s>CABRERA: Ryan Young, thank you. I'm Ana Cabrera, in New York. Thank you for being with me. I'll be back in an hour from now. My colleague, S.E. Cupp, continues our coverage of the news right after a quick break.
