Las Vegas concert shooting victims get engaged after surviving attack together

Updated

A couple who endured the unimaginable together is now set to say 'I do' by the end of the summer.

Mykenzie Lane, 22, and her boyfriend, 21-year-old Brandon Helmick, were among the revelers at the Route 91 Harvest Music Festival in Las Vegas when gunshots rang out.

As gunman Stephen Paddock rained bullets down upon the large crowd of concertgoers, Lane was struck in the leg.

Fifty-eight people were killed during the Oct. 1 attack, while hundreds more were injured — and Lane maintains that the only reason she survived is because Helmick carried her out of the venue after she was gunned down, using his own body as a shield.

On Friday, six months following the attack, Helmick proposed to Lane after three years of dating, according to KNBC.

The Orange County, California, couple is planning to tie the knot in four months on Aug. 3.
