hi, jonathan. >> hi, martha. the santa fe district attorney and the local sheriff's office are now investigating the shooting after police rushed to the bonanza creek ranch in new mexico following this 911 call. the sheriff said 63-year-old alec baldwin fired a prop gun on the set of his new movie, "rust" killing halyna hutchins, the director of photography and injuring joel souza who is 48. alec baldwin said there's no words to convey my shock and sadness regarding the tragic accident that took the life of halyna hutchins a wife, mother and deeply admired colleague of hours. i'm fully cooperating with the police. the sheriff said "this investigation remains open and active. no charges have been filed in required to this incident. witnesses continue to be interviewed." the witnesses include baldwin himself who was distraught and in tears outside the sheriff's office yesterday. the shooting recalled a similar tragedy in 1993 when 28-year-old brandon lee, son of bruce lee was shot and kill with a prop gun. safety p
