Ambulance and helicopters arrived. Hutchins and Souza were sent straight to the hospital. Hutchins died en route in a helicopter.<\/p>\n<p>On the ground, Baldwin was in shock but composed. He kept asking why he was handed a \u201chot gun.\u201d Our eyewitness said Baldwin kept saying \u201cIn all my years, I\u2019ve never been handed a hot gun.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA hot gun\u201d means a gun with real ammunition.<\/p>\n<p>Baldwin, not knowing the fate of the victims, was taken immediately to the hospital. \u201cHe had no idea how badly they were hurt or Halyna was dead.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRust\u201d is a Tier 1 one movie, meaning it was being produced for under $6 million. Our source says: \u201cThey had safety meetings every day but it was a Tier I movie, so they probably didn\u2019t have more than 1 prop person.\u201d According to the imdb, there was one key medic on the staff and two stunt people.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever happened on the set, Alec Baldwin certainly didn\u2019t intend for this outcome. And \u201cRust\u201d is done. Sources say the production has been halted but as with the movie about Gregg Allman\u2019s life, in which a crew member was killed because of negligence, lawsuits will now override any chance to that movie being finished.<\/p>\n<p>___<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.showbiz411.com\/2021\/10\/22\/exclusive-eyewitness-recounts-shooting-on-alec-baldwin-movie-set-one-bullet-ripped-through-both-victims\">https:\/\/www.showbiz411.com\/2021\/10\/22\/exclusive-eyewitness-recounts-shooting-on-alec-baldwin-movie-set-one-bullet-ripped-through-both-victims<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Exclusive Eyewitness Recounts Shooting on Alec Baldwin Movie Set: One bullet ripped through both victims<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-91869","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91869","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=91869"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91869\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=91869"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=91869"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=91869"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
