Cinematographer Halyna Hutchins was shot as Mr Baldwin, 63, rehearsed drawing a prop gun on the set of the movie Rust in October last year.

Santa Fe Sheriff's Office confirmed the actor had turned over his device to authorities near his home in New York.

Police had said earlier this week that the actor was not co-operating with the inquiry.

Santa Fe County Sheriff spokesperson Juan Rios told the Los Angeles Times on Friday that police intend to gather data like text messages and voicemails off the handset as part of their investigation into the incident.

The Governor was responding to comments by journalists  about the safety of the officials, athletes and spectators during the games.

Parkop  said that while such petty opportunists were part and parcel of many such  events he sympathized with the robbed  athlete and said that he would happily replace the phone.

This afternoon PNG Loop was told by Fiji media that they have advised the Fijian officials about the Governor's undertaking.
