Hamptons police criticized Alec Baldwin after the famed actor claimed he wasn’t responsible for a collision involving his Range Rover. However, new video evidence seems to challenge Baldwin’s account.

The 67-year-old actor, known for his role in “Beetlejuice,” reported that he crashed his wife Hilaria’s white SUV into a tree in East Hampton on Monday. Baldwin asserted that a National Waste Services truck had abruptly cut him off, forcing him off the road.

Contradicting Baldwin’s statement, footage obtained by Newsmax on Tuesday shows the truck leaving a junction without interference.

In the video, Baldwin’s vehicle is seen on the right side of the road, veering off a stretch without an emergency lane before crashing into a tree.

The Range Rover only enters the frame long after the truck completed its turn, raising questions about Baldwin’s version of the incident.

Newsmax reported that there was no sign the truck had forced Baldwin out of his lane or any obstruction on the road that required him to swerve off it.  

An East Hampton Police Department spokesman said: ‘This video is not from our department. 

‘Our report stands as accurate and nothing Mr Baldwin has stated publicly since impacted the responding officer’s report.’ 

Detectives found evidence of ‘no criminality’ and told the Daily Mail that ‘there is nothing further for our department to investigate.’  

New footage appeared to contradict Alec Baldwin’s claim that he was cut off by a truck when he crashed his car into a tree in the Hamptons on Monday 

Long Island cops said that ‘nothing Alec Baldwin stated publicly since impacted the responding officer’s report’ about the crash, after the star, 67, claimed that he drove head-first into a tree because the driver of a National Waste Services truck swerved into him 

Police said that the contributing factors to the crash were found to be ‘driver reaction to other uninvolved vehicle, and slippery and wet road conditions.’ 

The footage showed heavy rainfall on the road as a heavy Nor’easter barreled through the East Coast over the weekend. 

East Hampton resident Vanessa Gordon told the Daily Mail that the stretch of road where the crash occurred is notorious for car accidents in the neighborhood. 

‘I wish I had a dollar for the amount of times I’ve seen people on their cell phones distracted, especially driving out there and on the back road. We joke that was like a sport, but it’s become quite serious out there,’ she said. 

‘So unfortunately it would not surprise me if he was distracted, which is, it’s such a shame if that’s what it was. But thankfully no one was hurt.’

Baldwin, who accidentally killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of his western movie Rust in 2021, said he ‘felt bad’ for ruining his wife’s car in the accident, but was grateful that he and his brother Stephen walked away unharmed. 

The actor also thanked the East Hampton Police Department for responding to the crash quickly, and singled out officer Ian Gerken as a ‘lovely guy.’ 

‘Thank you to the East Hampton Police Department, the town police department, for coming to my aid,’ he said. 

‘As nice as can be, as pleasant as can be about the whole thing.’ 

Alec had been driving with his brother Stephen when the crash occurred. The brothers are pictured Sunday night at the Hamptons International Film Festival in East Hampton, New York

Baldwin is a well-known resident in the New York enclave, and Gordon told the Daily Mail that Hamptons locals were not entirely surprised to hear he had been in another accident over the weekend. 

‘It’s like, ‘What did he do? What happened this time?” she said. ‘He stayed very quiet though in recent last few years or so. He doesn’t emerge that often. He used to be quite a fixture out here. He has definitely quieted down.’ 

Baldwin said he was making a quick getaway from New York following the crash, and ‘couldn’t wait’ to get to Los Angeles to see Hilaria, 41, and the couple’s eight children. 

‘Going out to California to gather my family together, spend a few days out there and then come home,’ he said. 

The accident unfolded after Alec and his brother Stephen attended the Hamptons International Film Festival, where they promoted their podcast, ‘One Bad Movie.’ 

Stephen added in a statement that he was ‘grateful no one was injured’, and said he is ‘doing fine’ after the crash. 

‘He’s relieved that this was just an accident with no serious injuries,’ his representative said, and noted that both brothers ‘are taking time to rest.’ 

Hilaria Baldwin also posted a video to Instagram in which she reassured fans that her famous husband and brother-in-law were unharmed and thanked well-wishers for their concern.

‘Thank you for caring,’ she said while sitting in a vehicle and smiling into the camera.
