Another crew member who was working on the film Rust is in hospital, where doctors are fighting to save his arm following a spider bite.

Jason Miller, a lamp operator and pipe rigger, was working to wind down production of the film after cinematographer Halyna Hutchins was accidentally shot dead by Alec Baldwin on 21 October.

According to a Just Giving page, Mr Miller was on the site of the Rust production in New Mexico when he was bitten by a brown recluse spider - a venomous spider that is native to North America.
