Tributes to Las Vegas shooting victims, first responders — THE DAY IN PHOTOS

Updated October 16, 2017 - 2:11 am

Hundreds of people came together Sunday night on Las Vegas Boulevard to pay tribute to the victims of the Oct. 1 mass shooting.

Wearing “Las Vegas Strong” T-shirts, many with the names of all 58 victims of the Route 91 Harvest festival shooting two weeks earlier, walkers stepped off from Circus Circus for a trek of more than 3 miles south to Mandalay Bay.

Also on Sunday, Raiders owner Mark Davis arranged for 30 firefighters, police officers and dispatchers to be flown Sunday morning from Las Vegas to attend the Raiders game against the Los Angeles Chargers at the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum.

All the first responders present worked on Oct. 1 during the shooting.
