The victim has been named as 31-year-old Johnny Pizarro.
Mr. Pizarro was sitting in a car with a parking cone on the roof, watching over equipment trucks for the show. At around 5:15 a.m, a gunman approached the car, opened the door and opened fire, shooting the guard in the head and neck.
Another guard told the New York Daily News he witnessed the attack
