A New Mexico judge dismissed involuntary manslaughter charges against Alec Baldwin on Friday, agreeing with his lawyers that prosecutors and police withheld evidence on the source of the live round that killed 'Rust' cinematographer Halyna Hutchins in 2021.

Three days after Baldwin's trial began in New Mexico, Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer ruled after hearing evidence on the defense request made earlier on Friday.

Baldwin hugged his wife Hilaria Baldwin, who had been in court throughout this week's hearings, and his sister Elizabeth Keuchler was in tears after the judge's ruling. Baldwin then left the courthouse without speaking to reporters.

The actor's legal team said the Santa Fe sheriff's office took possession of live rounds as evidence in the case but failed to list them in the 'Rust' investigation file or disclose their existence to defense lawyers.
