'Rust' gaffer, who held Halyna Hutchins in his ‘arms while she was dying,' returns to LA after on-set tragedy

'Rust' gaffer, who held Halyna Hutchins in his ‘arms while she was dying,' returns to LA after on-set tragedy

Serge Svetnoy, an electrician on "Rust," was spotted in Los Angeles after the tragic on-set shooting in New Mexico that resulted in the death of his colleague, cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.

Svetnoy took to social media over the weekend to pay tribute to Hutchins and revealed that he "was holding her in [his] arms while she was dying." Serge Svetnoy returned to  Los Angeles after working on the movie 'Rust.' (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) An on-set shooting resulted in the death of Svetnoy's colleague, cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) Actor Alec Baldwin was rehearsing a scene when he discharged a firearm he was told was unloaded. (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) The projectile fired from the gun struck Hutchins and director Joel Souza. (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) Hutchins ultimately died while Souza has since been released from the hospital. (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) Baldwin was handed the gun by assistant director Dave Halls, who did not know it was loaded. (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) Svetnoy said on social media that he was standing 'shoulder-to-shoulder' with Hutchins when she was hit by the projectile. (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) 'I was holding her in my arms while she was dying," he wrote. 'Her blood was on my hands.' (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) Svetnoy said that he and Hutchins collaborated frequently, working together in extreme conditions. (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) He recalled that he would even share food and water with her at times. (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) Svetnoy claimed Hutchins' death was due to 'negligence and unprofessionalism.' (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) 'The negligence from the person who was supposed to check the weapon on the site did not do this; the person who had to announce that the loaded gun was on the site did not do this; the person who should have checked this weapon before bringing it to the set did not do it,' he said online. 'And the DEATH OF THE HUMAN IS THE RESULT!' (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) Svetnoy then mentions the film's producers directly.  (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) 'I understand that you always fight for the budget, but you cannot allow this to happen," he stated. "There should always be at least one professional in each department who knows the job.' (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) Finally, Svetnoy mentions Baldwin. (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) ‘I do not wish anyone to go through what I went through, what her husband @Matt Hutchins and her son Andros went through, and the actor Alec Baldwin, who has been handed a gun on set. He has to live with the thought that he took the life of the human because of unprofessional people.’ (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) Production on 'Rust' has been halted for an undetermined amount of time while an investigation into the matter continues. (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) Fox News was recently told by the Sante Fe Medical Examiner & Coroner that the Hutchins' autopsy could take ‘six to 10 weeks' or more. (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) Prosecutors and law enforcement officers are expected to provide an update on the investigation Wednesday. (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) No charges have been filed as of yet. (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) According to a warrant obtained by Fox News on Tuesday, authorities collected guns and ammunition from the set. (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID) Serge Svetnoy recently paid tribute to cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, who was fatally shot on the 'Rust' set. (Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID)

Now, the electrician has returned to Los Angeles.
