David Halls is the man who had handed the prop gun to Alec. Incidentally, he had been fired from a previous film in 2019 for safety issues and not rehired on another project due complaints about personal conduct.

Meanwhile, over the weekend, Alec spoke to the press and said, “I’m not allowed to make any comments because it’s an ongoing investigation. I’ve been ordered by the Sheriff’s department in Santa Fe, I can’t answer any questions about the investigation.”

“She was my friend! The day I arrived in Santa Fe to start shooting, I took her to dinner with Joel the director.”
