On March 23, Mohammad Anwar of Springfield, Virginia â a 66-year-old immigrant from Pakistan earning his living as an Uber Eats driver â was killed by two girls, ages 13 and 15.
They carjacked Anwar, tasered him, and then â as he held on to the car (the source of his livelihood) in an attempt to stop them from stealing it â floored the gas pedal and crashed the car, killing him when he was thrown from the vehicle.

As reported the next day in The Washington Post:
“Anwar tried to force his way back into the car by climbing on top of the teen in the driver’s seat, [Detective Chad Leo of the Washington, D.C., police homicide unit] said. Before he could get all the way in, though, the 13-year-old reached over from the passenger seat, turned on the ignition and ‘manipulated’ the gear shift, Leo said.
