Alec Baldwin fatally shoots woman with prop gun on movie set
BBC, Oct 21, 2021

A woman has died and a man injured after actor Alec Baldwin fired a prop gun on a New Mexico film set.

Police in the US state said Mr Baldwin discharged the weapon during filming for the 19th Century western Rust on Thursday.

The woman, 42, was taken to hospital but died of her injuries. The man was receiving emergency care.

Detectives are investigating the incident at Bonanza Creek Ranch, a popular filming location.

A trade union confirmed to Variety magazine that the woman had been working as director of photography.

The International Cinematographer's Guild said her death was "devastating news" and "a terrible loss".

The woman has been named as 42-year-old Halyna Hutchins, who was working as director of photography.

The man being treated is Joel Souza, 48, the film's director.

Police said their investigation remains open and active, and no charged have yet been filed related to the incident.

Alec Baldwin Shot and Killed Female Cinematographer, Injured Director on Movie Set

PAUL BOIS   |   21 Oct 2021


A tragedy occurred on the set of the latest Alec Baldwin movie where the actor reportedly accidentally shot and killed a female cinematographer and injured the director due to a prop gun misfire.

“Alec Baldwin fired a prop gun on a set in New Mexico on Thursday, accidentally killing cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and wounding director Joel Souza,” reported Variety.

The tragic incident reportedly occurred on the Bonanza Creek Ranch set in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where Alec Baldwin was shooting his upcoming Western, Rust. Hutchins, who originally remained unidentified, died after being transported via helicopter to the University of New Mexico Hospital.  .  .  .

.  .  .  the incident occurred when Baldwin reportedly “cocked a gun during a rehearsal, unaware that there were live rounds in it, hitting two people, a man and a woman.” Representatives for Baldwin, a rabid anti-gun demagogue, did not immediately respond to media requests for comment.  .  .  .

It's funny how the MSM keeps referring to the gun as a "prop".  Like it is a friendly play gun, a toy or replica, to give cover to the big lib actor.  If the weapon can fire live ammo it ain't no prop.

Did he fire it twice, or just once and hit two people?

I wonder why he was pointing the gun at a cinematographer.

Why was Alec Baldwin pointing a “prop gun” at a cinematographer? How did he shoot two people? With one bullet? Did the bullet bounce? How many shots were fired. These are questions that police will investigate.

Movie problems with stunts and props are nothing new.

I still feel sick inside thinking of Vic Morrow.

Sort of like Brandon Lee's death on the set of The Crow.

Blank rounds are not harmless, they're just not as harmful as rounds fully loaded with powder and a bullet.

Apparently Baldwin is beside himself over this - good - and now he should be mercilessly bird-dogged for it, based on his own prior bird-dogging of police officers involved in shootings.

Where are the gun control nuts calling for a prop gun ban?
