CBSN
Actor Alec Baldwin has pleaded not guilty to a refiled count of involuntary manslaughter in the 2021 fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of the Western film "Rust" in New Mexico.
According to court documents filed Wednesday in Sante Fe County court, the 65-year-old Baldwin waived his right to an arraignment — originally scheduled for Thursday — and pleaded not guilty to the charge, which was brought earlier this month by New Mexico special prosecutors.
On Oct. 21, 2021, on a film set outside Santa Fe, the 42-year-old Hutchins was struck and killed by a live round when a prop gun being held by Baldwin discharged during a rehearsal. Joel Souza, the film's director, was also wounded.
