The agitator, who hosts an ‘anti-fascist’ podcast, repeatedly approached Baldwin while he was on the phone and at the cash register. Despite Baldwin’s attempts to ignore her, the protester continued to harass him about his criminal case in New Mexico, where he’s facing charges in the fatal shooting of Halyna Hutchins on the set of ‘Rust.’ The exact location and time of the confrontation are unknown.
