A shocking viral video has surfaced online, showing a retired police chief being deliberately hit and killed by a car in Las Vegas. The horrific incident occurred back in August, but the footage only emerged about a month later.
The victim, Andreas Probst, had spent 35 years as a police chief in California before retiring. The 64-year-old was tragically struck by the vehicle while riding his bike, just four kilometers away from his home. He was immediately rushed to University Medical Center but was pronounced dead.
The disturbing video allegedly shows the driver asking, ready? as they approached Mr. Probst, while a passenger in the vehicle can be heard encouraging the driver to hit him. The car then brutally smashes into the cyclist before speeding away, leaving Mr. Probst lying on the ground.
The footage also captured another incident earlier on, where the same vehicle appeared to deliberately drive another car off the road. Following the emergence of the video, the 17-year-old driver of the car was arrested and taken to the Juvenile Detention Center.
Law enforcement authorities have since charged the driver with murder. The incident has left the community in shock and disbelief, as Mr. Probst was well-known and respected in his former role as a police chief.
Andreas Probst’s family and loved ones remember him as a caring father and a remarkable individual. The tragic death of Andreas Probst highlights the need for road safety and the importance of holding individuals accountable for their actions. The community mourns the loss of a dedicated retired police chief, while demanding justice and a safer environment for all road users.
