The shooting happened on Oct. 21 on the Santa Fe, New Mexico, set of
Rust
, a country western movie starring Alec and directed by Joel Souza. During a rehearsal, assistant director
David Halls
unknowingly handed Alec a gun that had been loaded with real bullets. Thinking it was only loaded with blanks, Halls shouted "cold gun" to indicate it was safe to use, according to a Santa Fe County Sheriff's Office
search warrant affidavit
.

Alec shot the Colt .45 revolver, which left Hutchins fatally injured and Souza hospitalized.
Neither Halls nor Baldwin knew that the gun had live ammunition in it, according to the affidavit.
The investigation remains ongoing, with
production on the film halted
. No charges have been filed, though authorities have said that "all options are on the table at this point" and "no one has been
ruled out
" as they search for answers as to what led to the fatal shooting.
