   The teenage driver accused of fatally mowing down a retired police   
   chief biking along a Las Vegas road should be tried as an adult,   
   prosecutors said Monday as the victim’s wife reportedly called for   
   “outrage in the courtrooms.”   
      
   Andreas Probst, 64, was deliberately struck by a Hyundai around 6   
   a.m. on Aug. 14 and a 17-year-old driver was arrested in the   
   shocking caught-on-camera hit-and-run.   
      
   The teen is facing a murder charge that was filed in the juvenile   
   system, but the Clark County District Attorney’s said in a news   
   release Monday it wants to charge the suspect as an adult.   
      
   The DA’s office and the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department are   
   also seeking a second suspect — also apparently a teen boy — who was   
   giggling while filming the horrifying incident, the Las Vegas   
   Review-Journal reported.   
      
   “I am confident that justice will be served in this matter once the   
   investigation is complete and the appropriate charges have been   
   filed,” Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson said in a   
   statement.   
      
   The driver has not been identified because of his age.   
      
   The hit-and-run gained national attention over the weekend when a   
   clip of it exploded on social media.   
      
   As the driver approached the cyclist, he asked his pal “ready?” as   
   the laughing passenger filmed.   
      
   “Yeah, hit his ass,” he told the driver before plowing into the   
   retiree.   
      
   After the cyclist was struck, the car sped off on North Tenaya Way.   
      
   Probst’s grief-stricken wife, Crystal Probst, told Fox News Digital   
   her loved one’s slaying is the result of national backlash against   
   police and lack of sufficient punishment for criminals.   
      
   “It’s not just about one victim. We as a nation are victims. We are   
   victims of senseless crimes,” she said in her first public statement   
   since police announced a murder charge against the driver.   
      
   “We all need to show up and show our outrage in the courtrooms.”   
      
   Following the deliberate crash, Probst was taken to University   
   Medical Center where he was pronounced dead.   
      
   The former cop had moved to Sin City after he retired as chief of   
   police in Bell, California in 2009, according to reports.   
      
   “He was honestly like a ray of sunshine,” Taylor Probst said of her   
   father during a memorial service, according to KLAS. “That just bled   
   through your life.”   
      
   “Everybody who ever knew him,” she additionally said. “Loved him.”
