Nothing taken from Russian opposition blogger Zhukov during attack - Source

Moscow, Sep 1 (Sputnik) The two unknown assailants who beat Russian opposition activist and blogger Egor Zhukov, who was found guilty of inciting extremism last year, did not take anything from him, a law enforcement source told Sputnik on Tuesday.
The 22-year-old blogger was beaten up next to his house in Moscow late on Sunday and had to go to a hospital for an MRI, according to Alexey Venediktov, the editor-in-chief of the Ekho Moskvy radio station where Zhukov worked as a radio host. The police have opened a criminal case over the incident.
"The police officers who arrived at the scene established that the attackers had not taken anything from the victim. Thus, no material damage was caused," the source said, adding that law enforcement officers' attempts to catch the intruders with the help of a service dog had failed.
