AEROPUERTO RUSO TURBA ANTISEMITA IRRUMPE EN LA PISTA Para protestar contra la llegada de israelíes
Una turba de manifestantes antisemitas irrumpió en la pista de un aeropuerto ruso para protestar contra un vuelo procedente de Israel y todo resultó ser increíblemente peligroso.
Esta peculiar escena se desarrolló el domingo en la ciudad de Makhachkala, que es la capital de una región predominantemente musulmana en Rusia conocida como la región de Daguestán y donde una multitud irrumpió en el aeropuerto de Makhachkala Uytash y bombardeó la pista.
La razón por la que sabemos que son antisemitas, en lugar de ser simplemente anti-Israel, es que varios de los miembros de la multitud llevaban carteles que explícitamente llamaban a los judíos de una manera odiosa.
Uno de los carteles decía: "Estamos en contra de los refugiados judíos" y otro: "No hay lugar para los asesinos de niños en Daguestán". Esta gente no estaba allí solo para manifestarse pacíficamente, al parecer, rodearon el avión una vez que aterrizó y tenían ganas de violencia.
La situación era tan delicada que el piloto y la tripulación se negaron a dejar que nadie ... básicamente a la espera de la seguridad del aeropuerto y la policía local para hacer frente a ellos, lo que finalmente hicieron. Hubo enfrentamientos con las autoridades y los manifestantes y dejó al menos 10 heridos.
No está claro cuántas detenciones se produjeron, pero el aeropuerto pudo reanudar sus operaciones el lunes. Mientras tanto, otros vuelos tuvieron que ser desviados. El aeropuerto era inaccesible. El Kremlin dice que Putin estaba siendo informado sobre el asunto ya que estaba sucediendo.
Los medios de comunicación estatales rusos lo atribuyeron a personas que "se reunieron para oponerse al conflicto palestino-israelí", pero esto claramente fue mucho más allá de eso y derivó en algo muy feo.
Por supuesto, todo esto se produce en un momento de creciente actividad en Oriente Medio. Israel está avanzando sobre Gaza en un intento de encontrar y eliminar a los terroristas de Hamás que llevaron a cabo el ataque del siete de octubre, mientras intenta encontrar y poner a salvo a cientos de rehenes.
Russian Airport Antisemitic Mob Storms Tarmac ... To Protest Incoming Israelis
A mob of angry, antisemitic protestors stormed a Russian airport tarmac to decry a flight touching down from Israel -- and the whole thing proved to be incredibly dangerous.
This wild scene unfolded Sunday in the city of Makhachkala -- which is the capital of a predominantly Muslim region in Russia known as the Dagestan region ... and where a massive crowd literally broke into Makhachkala Uytash Airport and bombarded the runway.
The reason we know they're antisemitic as opposed to just being anti-Israel -- several of the mob members were carrying signs that explicitly called out Jews ... in a hateful way.
One sign reportedly read, "We are against Jewish refugees" and another "There is no place for child killers in Dagestan." These folks weren't just there to peacefully demonstrate either -- apparently, they surrounded the plane once it landed ... and were itching for violence.
The situation was so volatile, that the pilot and crew refused to let anyone off ... basically waiting for airport security and local police to deal with them, which they eventually did. There were clashes with authorities and the protesters ... and left at least 10 people injured.
Unclear how many arrests came from this ... but the airport was finally able to resume operations on Monday. In the meantime, other flights had to be diverted -- the airport was inaccessible. The Kremlin says Putin was being briefed on the matter as it was happening.
Russian state media chalked it up to people who "gathered to oppose the Palestinian-Israel conflict" -- but this clearly was far beyond that and descended into something very ugly.
Of course, this all comes at a time of increased activity in the Middle East itself. Israel is moving in on Gaza in an attempt to find and wipe out the Hamas terrorists that carried out the Oct. 7 attack ... while trying to find and safely secure hundreds of hostages.

ANGELINA JOLIE POSTURA FIRME SOBRE ISRAEL y PALESTINA El bombardeo de Gaza no está justificado
Angelina Jolie está trazando una línea en la arena en la cuestión de Israel-Palestina, y teniendo en cuenta su bien documentada labor humanitaria en todo el mundo, su posición aquí es interesante.
La actriz, que ha pasado a desempeñar un papel de servicio público durante la última década, publicó este fin de semana una larga declaración sobre la guerra en Oriente Medio y dice claramente que la ofensiva que Israel está llevando a cabo en Gaza no está bien.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Comienza solidarizándo con los israelíes que fueron víctimas del atentado terrorista perpetrado por Hamás el 7 de octubre, diciendo que, como millones de personas, ella también se sintió asqueada y enfadada por todos los que murieron, especialmente niños y añade que reza para que los rehenes regresen sanos y salvos.
Sin embargo, luego escribe lo siguiente: "Lo ocurrido en Israel es un acto terrorista. Pero eso no puede justificar las vidas inocentes perdidas al bombardear a una población civil en Gaza que no tiene adónde ir, ni acceso a alimentos o agua, ni posibilidad de evacuación, y ni siquiera el derecho humano básico de cruzar una frontera para buscar refugio".
AJ cita sus muchos años de experiencia en este campo, diciendo que hay una necesidad desesperada de ayuda en la zona - y que la respuesta de Israel sólo está empeorando las cosas. Y añade: "La denegación de ayuda, combustible y agua está castigando colectivamente a un pueblo. La humanidad exige un alto el fuego inmediato. Las vidas de palestinos e israelíes, y las de todos los pueblos del mundo, importan por igual. Todo lo que pueda evitar víctimas civiles y salvar vidas debe hacerse".
Angelina continúa diciendo que ha donado a los esfuerzos de ayuda médica para Gaza, y destacó a Médicos Sin Fronteras como una org que está apoyando y siguiendo en este momento.
En cuanto a la actuación de Israel en este momento, parece que avanza a toda máquina. Su operación terrestre en Gaza se está intensificando y PM Benjamin Netanyahu ha dicho que esto ahora marca la "segunda etapa" de lo que él dice que va a ser una guerra larga y difícil.
Gaza está en un apagón en este momento, sin líneas de comunicación con el mundo exterior, algo que Elon Musk dice que va a ayudar a solucionar con el acceso a Internet, aunque solo a los grupos humanitarios reconocidos internacionalmente en la zona, algo a lo que Israel se opone firmemente.
Los EE.UU. sin duda se siente dividido en este conflicto y ha habido feroces protestas y manifestaciones en ambos lados, con un notable sentimiento pro-Palestina en las calles.
En cuanto a Angelina, ella ha tomado una postura firme. Básicamente, le está diciendo a Israel que se retire.
Angelina Jolie Strong Stance on Israel-Palestine ... Gaza Bombing Not Justified
Angelina Jolie is drawing a line in the sand on the Israel-Palestine issue -- and considering her well-documented humanitarian work worldwide ... her position here is interesting.
The actress -- who's moved into more of a public service role over the past decade or so -- posted a lengthy statement this weekend addressing the war in the Middle East ... and she says quite clearly, the ongoing offensive that Israel's undertaking in Gaza isn't right.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
She starts by sympathizing with Israelis that were victimized in the Oct. 7 terrorist attack carried out by Hamas -- saying, like millions of others, she too was sickened/angry about all those who were killed, especially kids ... adding she prays for the safe return of hostages.
However, she then writes this ... "What happened in Israel is an act of terror. But that cannot justify the innocent lives lost in bombing a civilian population in Gaza that has nowhere to go, no access to food or water, no possibility of evacuation, and not even the basic human right to cross a border to seek refuge."
AJ cites her many years of experience in this field, saying that there is a desperate need for aid in the area -- and that Israel's response is only making matters worse. She adds, "The denial of aid, fuel and water is collectively punishing a people. Humanity demands an immediate ceasefire. Palestinian and Israeli lives -- and the lives of all people globally -- matter equally. Anything that can prevent civilian casualties and save lives must be done."
Angelina goes on to say she's donated to medical relief efforts for Gaza, and spotlighted Doctors Without Borders as an org she's supporting and following at this time.
As far as how Israel's proceeding at this point ... it looks like it's full steam ahead. Their ground operation into Gaza is intensifying -- and PM Benjamin Netanyahu has said this now marks the "second stage" of what he says is going to be a long and difficult war.
Gaza is in a blackout at the moment -- with no lines of communication to the outside world -- something Elon Musk says he'll help fix with Internet access ... albeit, only to internationally recognized humanitarian groups in the area ... something Israel strongly objects to.
The U.S. certainly feels divided on this conflict -- and there have been fierce protests and demonstrations on both sides ... with a notable pro-Palestine sentiment in the streets.
As for Angelina ... she's taken a firm stance. Basically, she's telling Israel to stand down.

Elon Musk Offering Starlink Help in Gaza ... Israeli Govt. Objects
update
3:27 PM PT -- The State of Israel is fuming over Elon's pledge to help Gaza -- with its Minister of Communications saying his attempt to intervene is only going to bolster terrorists.
Shlomo Karhi took to Twitter to write, "Israel will use all means at its disposal to fight this. HAMAS will use it for terrorist activities. There is no doubt about it, we know it, and musk knows it. HAMAS is ISIS."
Israel will use all means at its disposal to fight this.
— 🇮🇱שלמה קרעי - Shlomo Karhi (@shlomo_karhi) October 28, 2023 @shlomo_karhi
HAMAS will use it for terrorist activities. There is no doubt about it, we know it, and musk knows it. HAMAS is ISIS.
Perhaps Musk would be willing to condition it with the release of our abducted babies, sons, daughters,… https://t.co/pRNOlnINbZ
He adds, "Perhaps Musk would be willing to condition it with the release of our abducted babies, sons, daughters, elderly people. All of them! By then, my office will cut any ties with starlink."
Elon, meanwhile, has responded ... "We are not so naive. Per my post, no Starlink terminal has attempted to connect from Gaza. If one does, we will take extraordinary measures to confirm that it is used *only* for purely humanitarian reasons. Moreover, we will do a security check with both the US and Israeli governments before turning on even a single terminal."
Elon Musk is coming to the rescue in Gaza -- which is currently being infiltrated by Israel ... and which is effectively cut off from the world in terms of communication and connection.
The multibillionaire tech boss announced this weekend that he'd be lending his Starlink satellite services to people on the ground there ... which will provide Internet access amid a blackout in the area as Israeli forces move in amid their delayed ground operation.
Starlink will support connectivity to internationally recognized aid organizations in Gaza.
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) October 28, 2023 @elonmusk
[ComStar]
Elon actually broke the news in response to one of his famed foes, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez -- who was decrying the fact that Israel had made Gaza go totally dark overnight.
Seemingly unprovoked, EM responded directly to the NY congresswoman, writing ... "Starlink will support connectivity to internationally recognized aid organizations in Gaza." He went on to reiterate this with others, highlighting the UN as one of the orgs that'd get connected.
Of course, his specificity here speaks to the fact that Hamas terrorists are still all throughout Gaza -- which is who the Israelis are attempting to root out and eradicate ... despite an overwhelming call for a ceasefire worldwide, which has erupted into pro-Palestine protests.
In trying to find the ones responsible for the Oct. 7 attack on Israel -- which claimed more than 1,400 innocent lives -- thousands of Palestinians have been killed in retaliation.
The war has become incredibly polarizing, especially here in the States ... but Elon's stepping up and seemingly showing some compassion for Palestinians caught in the middle of this.

Sospechoso de tiroteo en Maine Puede haber tenido como objetivo a su ex novia ... Persecución continúa
Robert Card podría haber tenido como objetivo a su exnovia cuando eligió los dos específicos lugares en Maine para atacar en masa con su arma.
El reservista del ejército de EE.UU. solía pasar el rato con su ex amante en el bowling y restaurante en Lewiston, donde desató sus brutales ataques con un rifle de estilo AR, matando a 18 personas e hiriendo a otras 13.
Las autoridades dijeron a ABC News, que la hermana de Card cree que los disparos fueron provocados por una "disputa doméstica", que la policía está explorando como un posible motivo. Según los informes, la familia de Card ha estado cooperando con los investigadores.
De acuerdo con documentos de la corte, el sospechoso estuvo casado alguna vez, pero se divorció en 2007. Su exesposa citó "diferencias irreconciliables" como la razón de la separación. La sentencia de divorcio incluía la custodia compartida de su hijo, que entonces era menor de edad y vivía principalmente con su madre.
Antes de su presunto crimen, Card escribió una nota dirigida a su hijo y la dejó en su casa de Bowdoin, según cuenta ABC. Los investigadores encontraron más tarde la incoherente "nota de suicidio", que contenía información personal y datos bancarios.
Al parecer, Card también "interactuó con contenido conspiranoico" en Internet, explorando una serie de temas como el COVID-19, cuestiones LGBTQ+, derechos de armas y comentarios políticos sobre el presidente Joe Biden.
Después de la masacre de la noche del miércoles, Card huyó en un Subaru blanco, que dejó abandonado en Lisboa, Maine, y que luego fue recuperado por la policía.
Cientos de agentes se han desplegado por toda la región para tratar de encontrar a Card, que les ha eludido hasta ahora, lo que algunos expertos atribuyen a sus supuestas habilidades como amante de las actividades al aire libre.
Las autoridades han dado instrucciones a los residentes de varias ciudades para refugiarse en sus lugares, ya que el sospechoso se considera armado y peligroso por sus antecedentes militares.
En 2002, Card se alistó en la Reserva del Ejército y se convirtió en un especialista en suministro de petróleo. Era responsable de la recepción, almacenamiento y envío de productos derivados de este combustible.
Recientemente, Card informó que tenía problemas de salud mental, como escuchar "voces". Durante el verano, fue internado en una institución psiquiátrica durante dos semanas después de que amenazara con disparar contra una base militar en Saco, Maine.
Maine Mass Shooting Suspect Robert Card May Have Been Targeting Ex-Lover ... As Manhunt Continues
Robert Card might have been targeting his ex-girlfriend when he chose two specific locations in Maine to go on his alleged mass murder spree.
The U.S. Army Reservist used to hang out with his former lover at the bowling alley and bar and grill in Lewiston, where he unleashed his brutal attacks with an AR-style rifle, killing 18 people and injuring 13 others.
Law enforcement told ABC News ... Card's sister believes the shootings were triggered by a "domestic dispute," which police are now exploring as a possible motive. Card's family has reportedly been cooperating with investigators.
According to court docs ... Card was once married, but got divorced in 2007, and his ex-wife cited "irreconcilable differences" as the reason. The divorce order included shared custody of their son, who was then a minor and primarily living with his mother.
Before his alleged killing rampage, Card wrote a note and addressed it to his son, leaving it behind at his Bowdoin home, ABC said. Investigators later found the rambling "suicide note," containing personal information and bank account details.
Card also reportedly "interacted with conspiratorial content" online, exploring a slew of topics such as COVID-19, LGBTQ+ issues, gun rights and political commentary about President Joe Biden.
After Wednesday night's massacre, Card fled in a white Subaru, which was left abandoned in Lisbon, ME, and recovered by police.
Hundreds of officers have fanned out across the region to try to find Card, who has eluded them so far, with some experts attributing this to his purported skills as an outdoorsman.
The authorities have instructed residents in several towns to shelter in place since Card is considered armed and dangerous with a military background.
In 2002, Card enlisted in the Army Reserve and became a petroleum supply specialist. He was responsible for receiving, storing and shipping petroleum-based products.
Recently, Card reported he was having mental health issues, including "hearing voices." Over the summer, he was committed to a mental institution for two weeks after he threatened to shoot up a military base in Saco, ME.

Bella Hadid Habla sobre Israel y Hamás... "Intrincado y horrible"
Bella Hadid habló por primera vez sobre los ataques en curso en el Medio Oriente, diciendo que las últimas dos semanas no han sido nada menos que un espectáculo de horror, al mismo tiempo que condenó el terrorismo en todos los ámbitos.
La modelo, que es parte palestina, dijo lo que pensaba el jueves escribiendo primero: "Perdóname por mi silencio", admitiendo que ha sido difícil encontrar las palabras para las "profundamente intrincadas y horribles últimas dos semanas".
Afirma que la muerte y la destrucción que se está produciendo en Israel y Palestina han hecho que el mundo vuelva a centrarse "en una situación que lleva décadas cobrando vidas inocentes y afectando a familias", y añade: "El pueblo y los niños de Palestina, especialmente en Gaza, no pueden permitirse nuestro silencio".
Bella dice que su "corazón está sangrando de dolor por el trauma" que ha visto en Internet, añadiendo que está de luto junto a las familias que están devastadas para siempre después de ver las secuelas de los ataques aéreos de Gaza.
Aunque la modelo habló sobre todo a favor de Palestina, añadió: "Estoy de luto por las familias israelíes que han estado lidiando con el dolor y las secuelas del 7 de octubre", cuando los terroristas de Hamás atacaron por primera vez Israel, escribiendo: "Condeno los ataques terroristas contra cualquier civil, en cualquier lugar".
También confirmó lo que las fuentes nos dijeron la semana pasada y es que ha recibido cientos de amenazas de muerte. Recuerden, su hermana, Gigi también se refirió al tema y fue recibida con desdén por su postura pro-palestina.
Gigi también fue criticada directamente por la cuenta del Estado de Israel en redes sociales por sus comentarios.
Bella Hadid Speaks Out About Israel & Hamas ... 'Intricate And Horrific'
Bella Hadid is speaking out for the first time on the ongoing attacks in the Middle East ... saying the last 2 weeks have been nothing short of a horror show, condemning terrorism across the board.
The model, who is part Palestinian, spoke her mind Thursday, first by writing, "Forgive me for my silence" ... before admitting it's been tough to find the words for the "deeply intricate and horrific past 2 weeks."
She says the death and destruction happening in Israel and Palestine shifted the world's focus "back towards a situation that has been taking innocent lives and affecting families for decades" -- adding, "The people and children of Palestine, especially in Gaza, cannot afford our silence."
Bella says her "heart is bleeding with pain from the trauma" she's already seen online ... adding she's mourning alongside the families that are forever broken after seeing the aftermath of the Gaza airstrikes.
While she's mostly speaking in favor of Palestine, she adds, "I mourn for the Israeli families that have been dealing with the pain and aftermath of October 7," when Hamas terrorists first attacked Israel .... writing, "I condemn the terrorist attacks on any civilians, anywhere."
She also confirmed what sources told us last week -- she's gotten hundreds of death threats, and even had her own phone number leaked. Remember ... her sister, Gigi, also spoke out, and was met with disdain over her pro-Palestinian stance.
Gigi came under fire directly by the State of Israel's social media account for her comments, too.

TIROTEO MASIVO EN MAINE SOSPECHOSO TIENE ANTECEDENTES MILITARES Alistado hace más de 20 años
Robert Card, el hombre que según la policía es el autor del tiroteo masivo de Maine, tiene antecedentes militares. Ganó medallas en la Reserva del Ejército a pesar de no haber entrado nunca en combate.
Card se alistó en la Reserva del Ejército en 2002, trabajando como especialista en suministro de petróleo.
Durante su servicio, Card fue galardonado con varias medallas; incluyendo la Medalla de Logro del Ejército, la Medalla de Servicio de Defensa Nacional, la Medalla de Servicio Humanitario, dos Medallas de Logro del Componente de Reserva del Ejército y la Cinta de Servicio del Ejército.
Las funciones de Card como especialista en suministro de petróleo le hicieron responsable de la recepción, almacenamiento y envío de productos derivados del petróleo, asegurándose de que el combustible era transportado y manejado de forma segura y correctamente dispensado en varios vehículos y aviones de las Fuerzas Armadas.
La Reserva del Ejército de la lista de trabajo en línea para la posición de Card promueve el trabajo de esta manera: "Como Especialista en Suministro de Petróleo, suministrarás al Ejército el combustible que necesita para mantener un estado de preparación en todo momento".
Como informamos, la policía está buscando a Card. La información actual es que fue en un caótico tiroteo en un bar en Maine, en el que al menos 18 personas murieron y 13 resultaron heridas.
Card supuestamente utilizó un rifle AR-15 en el tiroteo masivo del miércoles y en este momento hay una búsqueda cada vez mayor y desesperada para encontrarlo.
Maine Mass Shooting Suspect Has Army Background ... Enlisted Over 20 Years Ago
Robert Card, the guy cops say is the Maine mass shooter, has a military background ... earning medals in the Army Reserve despite never seeing combat.
Card enlisted in the Army Reserve way back in 2002, working as a petroleum supply specialist.
During his service, Card was awarded several medals ... including the Army Achievement Medal, the National Defense Service Medal, the Humanitarian Service Medal, 2 Army Reserve Component Achievement Medals and the Army Service Ribbon.
Card's duties as a petroleum supply specialist made him responsible for receiving, storing and shipping petroleum-based products ... making sure the fuel was transported and handled safely and properly dispensed in various Armed Forces vehicles and aircraft.
The Army Reserve's online job listing for Card's position promotes the job like this ... "As a Petroleum Supply Specialist, you’ll supply the Army with the fuel it needs to maintain a state of readiness at all times."
As we reported ... cops are on the hunt for Card, with police saying he went on a shooting rampage at a bowling alley and a bar in Maine, killing at least 18 people and injuring 13.
Card allegedly used an AR-15-style rifle in Wednesday's mass shooting ... and now there's an ever-expanding, and desperate, search to find him.

Maine Mass Shooting State Doesn't Have Red Flag Law ... Relaxed Gun Policies Become Talking Point
Maine is a state in the U.S. without a red flag law to take away firearms from those who show signs of being a threat to others -- a law that could have protected the 18 people killed and 13 injured in Wednesday's mass shooting.
U.S. Army Reservist Robert Card allegedly used an AR-15-style gun to kill 18 people in Lewiston, Maine. While a massive manhunt is underway to find him, many have pointed to the state's light gun laws as a major issue.
The state does have a yellow flag law -- the main difference is that, unlike a red flag law, it doesn't specifically empower family members to directly ask a judge to order the removal of someone's guns and block them from purchasing more.
In this case, only cops can issue a request.
It's also a permitless carry state and doesn't have a robust background check program ... and hasn't banned the purchase of assault-style weapons, like the one Card allegedly used at the bowling alley where a youth league was competing.
As we reported, authorities say Card is a trained firearms instructor with 2 decades of military experience -- and recently reported "hearing voices" and threatened to shoot up the National Guard Base in Saco, ME.
There are also reports he was committed to a mental institution this past summer and was released.
The question people are asking in the wake of the massacre is how Card was able to have weapons in his possession after his recently reported issues with his mental health -- with some saying a red flag law could've prevented the tragic incident.

Adolescentes acusados Se ríen y sonríen a la familia de la víctima en la corte Tras presunto asesinato de un jefe de policía
Los adolescentes acusados de atropellar y causarle la muerte a un jefe de policía retirado con un carro robado se rieron en la corte este martes, le sonrieron a la familia e incluso le exhibieron el dedo del medio cuando se estaban yendo del tribunal.
Jesús Ayala, de 18 años, y Jzamir Keys, de 16, aparecieron para una audiencia por la mañana en un tribunal de Las Vegas después de que fueran acusados de asesinar al ex policía Andreas Probst, además de otros delitos graves.
Un equipo de cámaras de 8NewsNow filmó a los sospechosos en sus uniformes azules de la cárcel, sonriendo y riendo mientras estaban sentados viendo los procedimientos judiciales.
En un momento dado, la pareja se cubrió la cara con las manos para protegerse de las cámaras. Mientras eran conducidos fuera de la sala, sonrieron con suficiencia a la esposa e hija de Probst y les hicieron el gesto ofensivo.
Después de la audiencia, la hija de Probst, Taylor, criticó a los adolescentes, diciendo a KSNV: "Estos chicos no respetaron el tribunal en absoluto. Estuvieron haciendo el tonto todo el tiempo".
Continuó: "Nos estaban sacando de quicio. ¿Cómo puedes sentarte ahí después de quitarle la vida a un hombre y actuar como un idiota con tanto derecho?".
El 14 de agosto, los sospechosos supuestamente conducían en un carro robado por una calle de Las Vegas cuando embistieron intencionadamente la parte trasera de Probst, de 66 años, mientras montaba en bicicleta, causándole la muerte.
Anteriormente, ese mismo día, habían hecho lo mismo estrellando el vehículo contra otro ciclista, que afortunadamente solo sufrió heridas leves, según la policía.
En ambos casos, los delincuentes grabaron videos de sus ataques, mientras se reían. Las imágenes de vigilancia recientemente publicadas los muestran huyendo de la policía. Uno de ellos llevaba una máscara facial.
Ambos están detenidos sin fianza en el Centro de Detención del Condado de Clark.
Accused Teen Murderers Laugh In Court, Grin At Victim's Family ... After Allegedly Killing Ex-Police Chief
The teens accused of fatally mowing down a retired police chief with a stolen car giggled in court Tuesday -- smirking at the victim's family and flipping them the bird.
Jesus Ayala, 18, and Jzamir Keys, 16, appeared for a morning hearing in a Las Vegas courtroom after they were indicted on charges of murdering former top cop Andreas Probst and other serious felonies.
An 8NewsNow camera crew filmed the suspects in their blue jail uniforms, smiling and laughing as they sat watching the court proceedings.
At one point, the pair covered their faces with their hands to shield themselves from the cameras. As they were led out of the courtroom, they grinned smugly at Probst's wife and daughter -- and made the offensive gesture at them.
After the hearing, Probst's daughter, Taylor, blasted the teens, telling KSNV, "These guys did not respect the court whatsoever. They were just dicking around the entire time."
She went on, "They were flipping us off. How can you sit there after taking a man's life and act like such an entitled punk?"
On August 14, the suspects were allegedly driving in a stolen car down a Las Vegas street -- when they intentionally rammed into the back of the 66-year-old Probst while he was riding his bicycle, killing him.
Earlier that day, they did the same thing, crashing the vehicle into another cyclist, who fortunately suffered only minor injuries, according to police.
In both cases, the offenders shot videos of their deliberate attacks -- while they were chuckling. Newly released surveillance footage shows them running away from police -- and one of them wearing a face mask.
Both are being held without bail in the Clark County Detention Center.
