Three Rust crew members sued Alec Baldwin and the film’s producers, alleging they suffered symptoms of insomnia, post-traumatic stress disorder, and anxiety stemming from the fatal shooting.

Plaintiffs the set costumer, the key grip, and the dolly operator, claim they were all in close proximity to Baldwin when the gun went off and suffered “blast injuries” from the “deafening” sound.

The suit faults the producers for hiring armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed despite her lack of experience.

The lawsuit faults Baldwin for not paying attention during weapons training, failing to ensure that the gun was not loaded with a live bullet, and discharging the round.
