Las Vegas city employee Cameron Robinson, 28, is among those who were killed during the shooting on the Las Vegas strip at a country music festival on Sunday night, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
According to the Review-Journal, Robinson was attending the festival with his boyfriend. During the shooting, Robinson was shot in the neck. Though he drove to Las Vegas for work, his residence was in Utah.

Up until the Vegas shooting, the Pulse shooting was the deadliest mass shooting in recent U.S. history.
