The 15-year-old and her accomplice, 13, have been charged with murder and armed carjacking after attacking 66-year-old Mohammad Anwar with a Taser near the Navy Yard station, the outlet reported. Anwar’s car reportedly veered into the street, crashing and rolling over, before he was ejected from his vehicle. (RELATED: Bodycam Shows Daunte Wright Fleeing Arrest, Officer Shouting ‘Taser! Taser!

The 15-year-old girl will be remanded to the Department of Rehabilitation Services until she is 18, Fox News reported.
The wife of Anwar’s nephew created a GoFundMe page on March 24 that has raised more than $1 million.
“Mohammad Anwar was a hard-working Pakistani immigrant who came to the United States to create a better life for him and his family,” the description stated. “He was simply at work yesterday evening, providing for his family, when his life was tragically taken in an appalling act of violence.”
“Anwar was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, uncle, and friend who always provided a smile when you needed one. He leaves behind a family, near and far, who cherish, love, and miss him dearly.”
