Dummy bullets had been replaced with cardboard wadding, but a bullet fragment had broken off and remained in the gun.
That metal tip from the dummy bullet hit Lee's abdomen. The son of the renowned martial-arts master and actor Bruce Lee was 28.
Lee's family released a statement following Hutchins death.
"Our hearts go out to the family of Halyna Hutchins and to Joel Souza and all involved in the incident on "Rust"," the statement read. "No one should ever be killed by a gun on a film set. Period."
