Alec Baldwin confronted by Pro-Palestine group; protestor taunts 'You did kill someone though, right?'
Actor Alec Baldwin found himself in a heated confrontation at a pro-Palestine protest in Manhattan, late Monday night.
In a video going viral online, the 56-year-old actor was seen engaging in a heated verbal exchange with a protestor, ultimately prompting the police to step in and escort the actor away from the angry mob.
Baldwin was identified among the crowd near West 29th Street when a protestor confronted him about his stance on the Israel and Palestine conflict. In response, a visibly agitated Baldwin, retorted, "Because I'm in Hollywood? You ask stupid questions. Ask me a smart question."
The exchange between the two men only seemed to escalate with both shouting at each other in close proximity, all while protestors gathered around to record the confrontation on their phots. Police officers in the area were then seen stepping in to keep the two men away from each other, while leading the actor away from the scene.
As he was escorted away, a crowd followed him, and a man taunted him about the tragic shooting incident on the set of the movie 'Rust' in 2021. A man was heard shouting, "You did kill someone though, right? You're a murderer!"
Amid the commotion, Baldwin faced verbal attacks from the crowd, with individuals shouting and abusing him. In response, Baldwin retorted by shouting, "shut the f*** up!"
In a final attempt to reveal his stance on the Israel and Palestine matter, Baldwin said, 'I want peace for Gaza, though.'
The reason for Baldwin's presence at the protest remains unclear.
