Assistant director of Baldwin film fired from Northwest Arkansas movie set after gun went off

PRAIRIE GROVE, Ark. — The assistant director who handed Alec Baldwin the gun that killed a cinematographer was fired from a movie set in Northwest Arkansas in 2019 for a similar incident.

According to the Associated Press, Dave Halls was fired from the production of "Freedom's Path," which was shot entirely in Northwest Arkansas, after a gun went off on set and wounded a film crew member.

A producer for "Freedom's Path" told the AP that Halls was removed from the set following the gun being unexpectedly discharged.

In the past, producers from other film productions have filed complaints about Hall for his "disregard of safety protocols," the AP reports.
