The teen car passenger who filmed himself encouraging his friend to mow down a retired police officer riding his bike through Las Vegas was arrested Tuesday, officials announced.
The unidentified minor and the teen driver — who was already in custody — are both facing murder charges in the disturbing hit-and-run death of 64-year-old Andreas Probst last month, Las Vegas officials said at a press conference.
“It’s a complete lack of conscience on a part of it and the worst part about it in the video is you hear that everything was intentional,” Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department Detective Lieutenant Jason Johansen said.
Police say the passenger filmed the gut-wrenching video showing that Probst was deliberately struck and left for dead while he was on his morning bike ride around 6 a.m. on Aug. 14.
The driver can be heard asking his giggling friend “ready?” as he speeds up directly behind the retired cop.
“Yeah, hit his ass,” the passenger tells the driver before plowing into the retiree.
Probst was thrown onto the windshield, sending shards of glass through the car, and over the car before crashing onto the side of the road.
“Damn that n—a got knocked out!” the passenger says as the driver can be heard stepping on the gas.
The killing was the most severe in a string of crimes the pair allegedly carried out that morning, authorities said.
The couple allegedly struck a 72-year-old man around 5:30 a.m. that morning, leaving him with non-life-threatening injuries.
They’re also accused of intentionally ramming into a second car traveling nearby before setting their sights on Probst.

How much was bail?
These are the kinds of babies that should be thrown out with their bathwater.
Never have I (with my own eyes) seen such utter callous disregard for a fellow human’s life as displayed in the video of this murder.
Disgusting. Absolutely disgusting.
I predict that the DA will decline to prosecute citing psychological excuses (he didn't know it was wrong), and then let them back out on the streets after admitting that they are a danger to society due to lack of empathy and value for life.

A life sentence of 23 hours a day in an isolation cell is one permanent solution.
Letting them party with the prison guards is another.
They didn’t ignore the Central Park Jogger case. But that was a generation ago.
Neither to black lives, really. So long as it’s not a cop does the killing. Drivebys, vendetta shootings, just plain shooting a man just to see him die, kid trying out gun he got or found, gang rumbles, they are daily fare in the ‘hood. Nobody notices unless it’s a cop or a white lynch mob (which is unheard of in this day and age).
“A life sentence of 23 hours a day in an isolation cell is one permanent solution.”
NOOOOO! These aren’t J6ers!
It would be a real shame if these scumbags fell in the shower and hit their heads and died.
Yes, a real shame indeed. One good thing though, they would be removed from the gene pool.
Damn! You’re right! Start with these two.
Kids like him hate us. That’s all there is to it.
I recommend we start hanging these dark skinned murderers.
Teddy Williams goes yard with that one!
Just the murderous roe v. Wade decision, the execution of people below this stupid but magic age of 18 can be revisted and overturned.
They plan on charging them as adults.
Public hanging on national TV.
Raised by “strong independent single women” (black often). Who are on welfare but don’t tell them that and ruin their view of reality.
Lack of work. I won’t rant but I firmly believe young men should be involved in productive labor. Failing that organized sports as a distant 2nd. These kids are well fed on food stamps, play violent video games and get high. Basically while poor they live like bored entitled princes as they don’t have to work for anything.
Unless you count selling crack, weed or fentanyl in their 700 dollar sneakers work.
Fear not, the government schools will provide all the 'teens' necessary to destroy society.
Killed by a Teen, thank a teacher.
“I recommend we start hanging these dark skinned murderers.”
I recommend we start hanging all murderers.
