Alec Baldwin breaks down as Rust manslaughter case is dropped

The American actor Alec Baldwin has had all charges against him dropped after a judge dismissed the case, accusing the prosecution of withholding vital information.

Mr Baldwin was on trial for involuntary manslaughter after a gun he was handling on the set of his film went off, killing the cinematographer of the movie.

In a dramatic turn of events, the judge found the prosecution had wilfully and deliberately held back information which would have helped exonerate the actor.
