Or perhaps Hollywood desensitizes teens with violent movies, songs, and video games. Or maybe it’s social media or the state promoting fatherless homes.
On August 14, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department arrested a 17-year-old driver of a Hyundai who fled the scene after intentionally running over and killing Andreas Probst, a retired California police chief.
According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the teens posted a video of the joyride on social media. Police were able to use the video as evidence, which showed the driver ‘intentionally’ killed Probst.
Two Las Vegas scholars steal a car then commit a hit and run on an unsuspecting car before hitting and killing a random man on a bicycle.
They murdered that man for laughs.
