14-Year-Old Sentenced to jail for Killing Uber Eats Driver

A 14-year-old girl, has been sentenced to seven years in a juvenile prison, after she pleaded guilty to killing an Uber Eats driver during a foiled carjacking.

The teenage girl, who can not be named for legal reason, was caught on camera with another girl, aged 15, trying to steal 66-year-old Mohammad Anwar’s car in Washington DC, while he was delivering food on March 23.

The girls tried to drive away in his car while he clung to the driver-side door. They crashed the car, ultimately killing Anwar, a father-of-three.

Both girls were subsequently charged with murder and the 14-year-old, who was 13 at the time of the incident, was handed the maximum possible sentence at a hearing on Tuesday, July 6.

The 15-year-old, who has since turned 16, was handed the same sentence in June and will be released at the age of 21.

Fox 5 DC, reported that other charges lodged against the girls were dropped as part of their plea deals with prosecutors.
