Alec Baldwin says never pulled the trigger on a prop firearm that discharged on the "Rust" movie set. The October 21 shooting in Santa Fe killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and injured director Joel Souza.
"The trigger wasn't pulled. I didn't pull the trigger," Baldwin told ABC News' George Stephanopoulos. "I would never point a gun at anyone and pull the trigger, never."
In a promotional clip of the interview released Wednesday, Baldwin breaks down when describing the late Hutchins. This is one of the first public statements Baldwin has made since the shooting.
