LAS VEGAS — A judge ordered life sentences Tuesday for a pair of men who hit and killed a retired police chief with a vehicle as teenagers.
Jesus Ayala, 20, received a sentence of 20 years to life.
Jzamir Keys, 18, was sentenced to 18 years to life.
Both pleaded guilty to a count of second-degree murder in October. Their sentences were agreed upon by prosecutors and their attorneys.
The duo killed Andreas Probst, 66, as he was riding his bike near Centennial Parkway, then fled. The crash occurred on Aug. 14, 2023.
Authorities have said Keys filmed a video of the teens laughing and planning to hit Probst, a retired police chief from Bell, California.
