The manager of a private New Mexico ranch says he will continue to let movie productions film at the site despite a recent flap over American Indian artefacts.

Diamond Tail Ranch manager Roch Hart said he’s happy a 20th Century Fox investigation found that the cast from Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials didn’t take any ancient items from the ranch.

The film’s star, Dylan O’Brien, had suggested during an interview that artefacts were taken.

Hart says actors did not leave designated areas and the ranch isn’t missing any artefacts.

But he says the case has convinced the ranch to impose stricter guidelines for future productions.
