Police have released bodycam footage from the Rust film set, including video of actor Alec Baldwin just moments after the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.

On Monday, the Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office released “all files associated with our ongoing investigation.” This included several photos and videos from October 2021, when Hutchins was struck and killed by a prop gun shot by Baldwin, 64, which contained a “live round.” Rust writer and director Joel Souza was also injured in the incident.

The shooting occurred as Baldwin rehearsed with what he believed to be a safe gun.

In soundless rehearsal footage released by police, Baldwin is seen quickly drawing and aiming an F.lli Pietta 45 Long Colt Revolver, the same gun that was later misfired.

Further bodycam footage shows paramedics rushing to treat Hutchins and Souza on the film set before they are brought into ambulances.

Video of a visibly distressed Baldwin speaking to an officer in his cowboy costume was also released. In the recording from just minutes after the shooting, the officer asks if Baldwin is OK, to which he replies, “No, I’m not, actually.”

Baldwin, in the video, confirms to officers, “I was the one holding the gun, yeah.” He continues to be co-operative with police despite his flustered state, and says, “My hands are shaking.”
