- Alec and Hilaria Baldwin stopped to talk to paparazzi following them in Vermont on Saturday.
- When one of the paparazzi couldn't remember Halyna Hutchins' name, Hilaria scolded him.
- Halyna Hutchins was killed when Alec Baldwin discharged a prop gun while shooting "Rust."
Hilaria Baldwin, Alec Baldwin's wife, scolded paparazzi on Saturday as her husband answered questions about the accidental shooting on the set of "Rust" that killed director of photography Halyna Hutchins and injured the film's director, Joel Souza.
In a video shared on CNN, the Baldwins stopped in Manchester, Vermont, to talk to paparazzi who had been following them. Hilaria Baldwin appeared visibly angry during the nearly three-minute exchange, while her husband took a calmer tone.
When one of the paparazzi couldn't remember Hutchins' name while trying to ask Alec Baldwin if he had met with her family, Hilaria Baldwin stepped in.
"Halyna, her name is Halyna! If you're spending this much time waiting for us, you should know her name. Her name is Halyna," she said.
"You don't know her name?" Alec Baldwin asked. "Come on."
He then answered the question, saying he met with Hutchins' husband, Matthew, and their 9-year-old son, who are "mortified" over her death.
Hilaria Baldwin again stepped in and cut him off: "You guys, you know what, no details."
Her husband then turned to her, asking her to back down: "Do me a favor, I'm going to answer the question."

He then said Hutchins' husband is "overwhelmed with grief," adding that he is in "constant contact" with him and that they are "eagerly awaiting" the results of the investigation.
He also said he was unable to comment on the investigation and that he is cooperating with police daily. Charges have not been filed in the case, but officials said this week no one has been ruled out.
At the end of the encounter, Alec Baldwin told the paparazzi "my kids are in the car crying."
"Because you guys are following them and they know," Hilaria Baldwin added.
"As a courtesy to you I came to talk to you. I'm not allowed to talk about the investigation," he said, adding "now please would you just not follow us."
Alec Baldwin initially released a statement on Twitter the day after the shooting that said: "There are no words to convey my shock and sadness regarding the tragic accident that took the life of Halyna Hutchins, a wife, mother and deeply admired colleague of ours."
Reports later said he was "hysterical and absolutely inconsolable" over the shooting and that he was taking time away from acting.
