‘Yeah, hit his ass,’
The teen has since been charged with open murder, after police discovered a video posted to social media that allegedly showed him deliberately hitting the man.
Yet to be charged is a second individual seen sitting in the front passenger seat recording the cyclist’s impending demise and whose voice is heard shrieking in delight following the ‘direct hit’.
The disturbing clip begins with the driver and his passenger cursing at other cars as they speed by on the North Tenaya Way, near West Centennial Parkway.
The video shows the driver asking ‘ready?’ as the passenger films, laughing.
‘Yeah, hit his ass,’ he eggs on the driver before plowing into the retiree.
Video then shows the car approaching the cyclist on the side of the road from behind. With his friends’ encouragement, the driver pulls into the bike lane behind him, honks his horn, and deliberately smashes directly into his back tire with a loud bang, sending the Probst flying.
The passenger films the unwitting cyclist lying helplessly on the side of the road behind the vehicle.
‘Damn that n—a got knocked out!’ the passenger says as the driver can be heard stepping on the gas and fleeing the deadly hit and run scene.

Teen passenger tracked down 5 weeks after run down
Probst was taken to University Medical Center where he was pronounced dead, according to the Review Journal.
Come Tuesday, authorities announced the un-named juvenile teenager would also like the driver face murder charges in relation to Probst’s death – with police saying the pair had intentionally sought to run the cyclist and cause maximum damage.
The 17-year-old driver was arrested the same day as the Probst’s death on suspicion of hit and run. He was later charged with open murder because of the video. Of note, it took police five weeks to track down the passenger, who was wearing a mask in surveillance footage obtained by investigators.
The teen passenger was ultimately caught in part due to the damning video, which was alerted to police by a school resource officer that had been given the footage by a student.

String of crimes that morning leading up to retired cop’s death
Police said the pair stole four vehicles that morning leading up to the deadly tragedy.
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 that was traveling nearby before setting their sights on Probst.
The former cop had moved to Las Vegas after he retired as chief of police in Bell, California in 2009.

Retired police chief remembered
On September 7, community members gathered at the scene of the fatal crash to honor Probst with Ghost Bike, a permanently installed bike painted white to mark the collision point.
Probst according to his daughter had spent 35 years in law enforcement, KLAS-TV reported.
‘He was honestly like a ray of sunshine,’ Taylor Probst said of her father. ‘That just bled through your life.’
‘He was an amazing man, a husband,’ Probst’s wife, Crystal, added. ‘A father, a brother.’
Probst’s family said Tuesday that they believe the senseless killing was caused by the effect ‘social media has on our youth’ — not because of his 35 years in law enforcement.
Last year, 14 cyclists were killed on the roads of Clark County, which includes Las Vegas, in addition to 72 pedestrians who were fatally struck, according to state data.
According to the most recent data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 966 bicyclists were killed nationwide in traffic crashes in 2021, marking a 40-year high.
