The warrant, obtained by the Associated Press, also says that the assistant director was not aware that the gun was loaded. The gun that was fired was one of three laid on a cart by the film's armorer, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed. Assistant director Dave Halls grabbed the gun from the cart, believing it was unloaded, and brought it inside to Alec, who was filming a scene, the warrant says.
