Rust ammunition supplier sues Baldwin and producers

Seth Kenney, owner of PDQ Arm & Prop and a supplier to Rust, has sued Alec Baldwin and producers, alleging they scapegoated him for the 2021 on-set shooting that killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and wounded director Joel Souza. Filed last week in Santa Fe, the complaint says defendants falsely linked him to a live round in the gun Baldwin handled while rehearsing inside a church. Kenney accuses the production of ignoring gun safety and singles out armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, citing texts about live ammo despite his warnings. A representative for Baldwin and Gutierrez-Reed's attorney declined to comment.
