Rust shooting case: Search warrant for Baldwin’s phone

Alec Baldwin

Alec Baldwin is currently undergoing investigation into the October death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, who died on the set of his film, Rust, when a prop gun he was holding went off, killing Hutchins.

In the latest development in the case, investigators have issued a search warrant for Baldwin's phone. The local authorities in New Mexico continue to investigate the tragic accident - with production on the film halted - a source has said that Baldwin is leaning on his wife, Hilaria and kids, including 26-year-old daughter Ireland with ex Kim Basinger.

"It's such an unthinkable tragedy and the grief and trauma for him are unbearable. Alec is still in shock and his heart is completely broken. He is doing his best to cope and is leaning on Hilaria and the kids for support," the source said.

Baldwin spent quality time with family during Christmas. Hilaria shared several photos on Instagram from the family's festivities together in the Hamptons, featuring their six children, daughters Carmen Gabriela and Maria Lucia Victoria, and sons Rafael Thomas, Leonardo Angel Charles, Romeo Alejandro Davi and Eduardo Edu Pao Lucas. In one post shared on Instagram, the children can be seen posing with Santa Claus.
