Two black teenage girls have been charged with the carjacking and murder of 66-year-old Pakistani immigrant Mohammad Anwar.  Anwar was an Uber Eats driver, and the girls, aged 13 and 15, reportedly used a stun gun (or taser, reports vary) on him and then drove off with him still trying to pull the girl in the driver's seat out of his car.
