The production company overseeing the Western film where Alec Baldwin was holding a handgun that fatally shot a crew member was cited Wednesday by New Mexico authorities for not protecting the movie’s cast and crew.
The New Mexico Occupational Safety and Health Bureau cited Rust Movie Productions LLC, based in Thomasville, Ga., with a violation of the general duty clause, which requires employers to provide workplaces free of known, potentially fatal hazards that can be mitigated, and proposed a $136,793 fine.
