No one has been charged in the fatal incident during a rehearsal on Thursday at the Bonanza Creek Ranch outside Santa Fe as the local sheriff's office continues its investigation. 
 
Meanwhile, a devastated Baldwin has reportedly taken "some time to re-centre himself" following the incident.

It added, "Everyone knows this was an accident, but he`s absolutely devastated."

The source explained that the 'Beetlejuice' actor "can be very hard on himself" during difficult times and that the star is hoping to spend some time with his family. 
 
"(Baldwin) is someone who really deeply cares, so he can be very hard on himself. That's true in general, in situations nowhere near as serious as this. But in this situation, it's a whole other level because of the loss of life involved. 
 
"It's going to take him time to figure all this out. He needs to take a while to himself, to be with his family," the source added.

Film producer Aaron B. Koontz, who worked with Halls on two previous movies but was not involved in the making of 'Rust', told the Los Angeles Times Halls was a good manager.
