In breaking news, Alec Baldwin<\/a> fired a prop gun in New Mexico on Thursday which accidentally hit and killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. Director Joel Souza was also wounded. The crew were filming an independent feature titled Rust\u00a0<\/em>when the incident occurred at Bonanza Creek Ranch.<\/p>\n

According to\u00a0Variety<\/a>,\u00a0<\/em>42-year-old Hutchins was airlifted to University of New Mexico Hospital in Albuquerque, where she sadly passed away. Souza was transported via ambulance to Christus St. Vincent Regional Medical Center in Santa Fe. He is currently being treated for his injuries.<\/p>\n

It came after the Sheriff’s office received a 911 call at approximately 1:50pm local time. The set reportedly went into an immediate lockdown.<\/p>\n

In an official statement made by the Santa Fe County Sheriff\u2019s office, Hutchins and Souza \u201cwere shot when a prop firearm was discharged by Alec Baldwin, 68, producer and actor.\u201d<\/p>\n

“Detectives are investigating how and what type of projectile was discharged,” the statement continued.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson for Baldwin told the\u00a0Associated Press<\/em> (via Sydney Morning Herald<\/em>)<\/a> that there was an accident on the set involving the misfire of a prop gun which reportedly was filled with blanks.<\/p>\n

The investigation remains “open and active” but no one was arrested and no charges have been filed.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe received the devastating news this evening, that one of our members, Halyna Hutchins, the Director of Photography on a production called \u2018Rust\u2019 in New Mexico died from injuries sustained on the set,\u201d said John Lindley, the president of the guild, and Rebecca Rhine, the executive director, in a statement. \u201cThe details are unclear at this moment, but we are working to learn more, and we support a full investigation into this tragic event. This is a terrible loss, and we mourn the passing of a member of our Guild\u2019s family.\u201d<\/p>\n

Baldwin is a producer and stars in the Western-style film alongside cast members Frances Fisher, Jensen Ackles, Brady Noon and Travis Fimmel.<\/p>\n

Hutchins graduated from the American Film Institute in 2015 before working on several short projects and more recently the feature film, Archenemy.\u00a0<\/em>She was named a \u201crising star\u201d by American Cinematographer in 2019, according to\u00a0Variety.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
