Alec Baldwin accidentally shot cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on Thursday during the filming of Rust and shot a prop with a sharp bullet near nearby director Joel Souza. However, assistant director Dave Halls handed him the weapon with the words “cold gun”, which means that it should not contain sharp ammunition.

However, according to some members of the staff, complaints about non-compliance with security protocols appeared earlier. A few days before Baldwin, one of the props was fired by his stuntman, although it was not supposed to happen. The gunsmith of the film, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, also handled the weapons carelessly.
