Nevada police have identified the man authorities believe was a victim of homicide at this year’s Burning Man festival.

The Pershing County Sheriff’s Office announced Wednesday that 37-year-old Vadim Kruglov, a native of Russia, was the person found “lying in a pool of blood” on the Black Rock Desert festival grounds on August 30. Authorities previously said they were investigating Kruglov’s death as a homicide.

Officials — who earlier this week sought the public’s help in identifying the victim — added that Kruglov’s family in Russia has been notified, ABC News reports .

“Although this act appears to be a singular crime, all participants should always be vigilant of their surroundings and acquaintances,” Pershing County Sheriff Jerry Allen previously said in a statement Sunday.
