'Rust' prop person shot herself in the foot in accidental discharge prior to Alec Baldwin shooting: report

The production of the Alec Baldwin movie “Rust” reportedly saw multiple accidental discharges take place on the set prior to the one that left cinematographer Halyna Hutchins dead.

The outlet reports that a total of three incidents involving guns being fired accidentally happened prior to the incident involving Baldwin on Oct. 21. One involved Baldwin’s stunt double firing a blank round after he was told the gun he was holding was "cold," an industry term meaning that there were no projectiles in the firearm. This is similar to what assistant director Dave Halls told Baldwin on the day of the shooting, not realizing that a live round was in the gun he handed the actor before declaring it "cold." 

The outlet reports another shooting involved a woman in the props department. She was handling a gun and accidentally shot herself in the foot with a blank round, according to Lane Luper, the A-camera first assistant on "Rust."
