Alec Baldwin was the fourth person to handle a gun that he discharged on the set of his upcoming film "Rust," authorities have revealed.

The 63-year-old actor was rehearsing a scene when he discharged a gun he was told contained no ammunition. A projectile from the weapon struck and ultimately killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.

Director Joel Souza was also hit by the projectile, but he's since been released from the hospital.
