Two teenagers accused of killing a retired police chief were seen smirking, laughing and making obscene hand gestures in court as their trial date was set.
Jesus Ayala, 18, and Jzamir Keys, 16, both face charges which include numerous felonies including murder in relation to the death of Andreas Probst, 64.
The defendants could be seen smiling and laughing as Probst's family gathered in a Las Vegas court room for a hearing on Tuesday morning.
The pair have been charged as adults and entered not-guilty pleas to multiple felonies including murder, battery and grand larceny of an automobile.
Probst died after being struck by a car while riding his bicycle down a highway, which police believe was intentionally done by Ayala and Keys in August.
Probst daughter Taylor told KSNV after the hearing: 'These guys did not respect the court whatsoever. They were just d*****g around the entire time.'
During the hearing, in which a trial date was set, Taylor said the two had flipped her and her mother off.
She told the outlet: 'They (the defendants) were flipping us off. How can you sit there after taking a man's life and act like such an entitled p***k?'
Besides the fatal collision with Probst, which the two are said to have filmed, police also believe they had been involved earlier that day in another incident of a 72-year-old cyclist being mowed down.
New video released by a local court on Monday allegedly shows the teens laughing and intentionally striking the 72-year-old man.
The victim suffered a knee injury from the crash but survived, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
Separate surveillance footage showed what's believed to be the suspects trying to flee the cops by running through a parking lot.

Fresh meat is fresh meat. I doubt their crime will get them a pass for long, if at all.
Yes it does, a*******y.
Pity they can’t sentence these turds to the boats, the brazen bull, or necklacing.
Well played Fonebone ... well played!
