Prosecutors say they have evidence pointing to the possibility the armorer for the movie “Rust” introduced live rounds onto the set where a gun that actor Alec Baldwin was holding fired a bullet, killing cinematographer Halyna Hutchins in 2021.
Prosecutors had previously said it might never be clear how live rounds, which are not allowed on movie sets, got to the “Rust” set in New Mexico. Charging documents had held Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, who was working as chief weapons handler on her second film, was responsible for “allowing live ammunition on the set,” but not for bringing in the live rounds.
