Ten hardworking students within the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department family received scholarships in honor of fallen officers Alyn Beck and Igor Soldo.
 
On Wednesday, the owners of Henderson Kia and Henderson Mazda presented a check for $50,000 to fund the scholarships. 
 
The students will each be awarded $5,000 to help cover higher education costs.
 
Officers Beck and Soldo were gunned down back in 2014 while eating lunch inside a Cici's Pizza.
