I didn't pull the trigger: Alec Baldwin on fatal shooting on film set

Cinematographer Halyna Hutchins was killed and director Joel Souza was wounded when a bullet was accidentally fired by Alec Baldwin on the set of the film 'Rust'.

Los Angeles: Alec Baldwin said he did not pull the trigger of the gun that killed a cinematographer on the movie set of ‘Rust,’ while investigators in New Mexico zeroed in on how live ammunition may have found its way to the set.

Baldwin, who was holding a gun he was told was safe when it went off, spoke in his first full interview about the October 21 shooting.

"Well, the trigger wasn't pulled. I didn't pull the trigger," the actor told ABC television journalist George Stephanopoulos, according to an excerpt released on Wednesday of the interview, which is to be broadcast on Thursday.
