The assistant director who handed Alec Baldwin the prop firearm that killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins told authorities he did not check all the rounds inside the revolver before declaring it a “cold gun” on the New Mexico set of the film “Rust.”
David Halls picked up the gun and brought it over to the production’s armorer, Hannah Gutierrez, to be checked prior to a rehearsal for an upcoming scene, according to a search warrant filed in Santa Fe County Magistrate Court.
Halls said that he only recalled seeing three rounds in the chamber ahead of passing the gun over to Baldwin.
