Police in Washington, D.C., say two teenage girls have been arrested on charges of felony murder and armed carjacking for their alleged role in the death of Uber Eats driver Mohammad Anwar.

According to CNN, the Metropolitan Police Department said the two girls, ages 13 and 15, used a taser on Anwar, 66, during a recent carjacking attempt on Tuesday. The attack, police said, prompted an accident that resulted in his death.

Anwar, who lived in Springfield, Va., was described by his family in a GoFundMe as a “hard-working Pakistani immigrant who came to the United States to create a better life for him and his family.”
