Crew on Alec Baldwin film raised safety concerns just hours before fatal shooting | ITV News

Crew on an Alec Baldwin film had raised concerns about the production's safety just hours before the actor fired a fatal gunshot from a prop gun that he had been told was safe.

Disputes in the production of Western film Rust began almost from the start in early October and culminated with seven crew members walking off several hours before 42-year-old cinematographer Halyna Hutchins died.

The crew members had expressed their discontent with issues ranging from safety procedures to their accommodation, according to one of those who left.
