According to reports, two gunmen allegedly robbed the Subway hamburger shop featured in the Jussie Smollett hate fake case, taking money from the cash record as well as three users before fleeing on foot.
Chicago authorities said the assault took place , at 9: 20 p. m. on Thursday, with the culprits entering the store and waving weapons. After getting money from the file, the couple robbed three people who were in the business, years 23, 25, and 33, a CPD director reportedly said.

The pirates therefore made a footfall. A white man and a dark man were both seen by officers and armed with guns, both of whom were wearing masks.
The Subway shop is located in Chicago ‘s , Streeterville area — an area known for its upmarket stores, office buildings, and heavy visitor traffic.
Actor Jussie Smollett claimed two Trump supporters had allegedly yelled” This is Do state” and put a rope around his neck during an infamous late-night meeting in 2019 at the same Subway that he had frequented on the day of his infamous late-night experience.
The mainstream media faithfully repeated Smollett’s allegations until it all fell apart.
According to a law enforcement investigation, Smollett planned the incident in an apparent bid to win over the media and advance his Hollywood career.
The Empire actor, who has maintained his innocence, was eventually sentenced to 150 days in jail. He is currently appealing the decision.
