Two girls, just 13 and 15 years old, were charged with murder after they allegedly tried to carjack an Uber Eats driver with a stun gun, forcing the vehicle to flip and killing the deliveryman. The victim, Mohammad Anwar, 66, “was a hardworking immigrant who came to the U.S. in 2014 to build a better life for himself and his family,” his family said in a statement. The suspects, who are not being named because they are juveniles, allegedly tried to steal the car on Tuesday near Nationals Park and got into a struggle with Anwar—who was thrown on the sidewalk when the car crashed and overturned, NBC Washington reported.
