Actor Alec Baldwin addressed last week's deadly shooting on the set of his Western movie "Rust" in public for the first time Saturday, calling the incident a "one-in-a-trillion event." In a video from celebrity news agency Backgrid posted to TMZ's website, Baldwin referenced the active police investigation into the shooting, saying he could not say much about it.
"I'm not allowed to make any comments because it's an ongoing investigation," the actor told paparazzi. "I've been ordered by the sheriff's department in Santa Fe. I can't answer any questions about the investigation. I can't. It's an active investigation."
On October 21, cinematographer Halyna Hutchins was killed and director Joel Souza was wounded when Baldwin fired a .45-caliber revolver during a rehearsal on the "Rust" set, according to the Santa Fe County Sheriff's Office.
