Rather than calling the incident what it was, a carjacking, they referred to the driver Mohammad Anwar's death merely as an "accident."
The reason CNN apparently left out the important detail about what caused the "accident," might have something to do with the fact that the girls are Black. In fact, carjackings among young people in Washington, D.C., has increased significantly of late, and most have been committed by young Black men.
The fake news network received a butt-load of backlash over the weekend as a result of their selective methods of reporting what police called "felony murder" as an accident.
The girls — ages 13 and 15 — were charged with felony murder. Police officials say they attacked Anwar with a stun gun during the attempted carjacking, the car later crashed, flipped on its side, and Anwar died from his injuries after being thrown from the vehicle. The girls, for their part, were more interesting in what happened to their respective cellphones in the accident, not so much what happened to Anwar, 66, who came to the U.S. in 2014 to create a better life for his family.

The enhanced murder charges against the teens stem from a legal doctrine that "allows a killing that occurs in the course of a dangerous felony, even an accidental death, to be charged against the felon as first-degree murder," according to Nolo's Plain-English Law Dictionary.
Video of the carjacking incident made the rounds on social media. It shows the event in progress as the car speeds off with Anwar hanging outside. It crashes and the videographer races toward the scene. Meanwhile nearby National Guardsmen pull the girls from the wreckage with Anwar's body twitching nearby on the ground as onlookers just kept looking on, doing nothing to help him, as most onlookers are wont to do.
One of the teen girls can be heard saying, "Please, my phone is in there. My phone is in there," as Anwar was dying nearby. She cared more about her freaking phone than a human being she was responsible for killing.
This is what our society is devolving into.
CNN reported:
"Police said the girls, 13 and 15, assaulted an Uber Eats driver with a Taser while carjacking him, which led to an accident in which he was fatally injured"It did not lead to an "accident"--it led to a felony murder.
By Sunday morning, CNN's verbal calisthenics of the murder as an "accident "was one of Twitter's top trending topics with more than 100,000 tweets.
Comedian Tim Dillon mocked:
"These girls made a whoopsie when they murdered this man. Total accident. They were in wrong place at wrong time! They're good kids! Kids murder in cold blood/ make mistakes."
Fox News host Laura Ingraham reacted:
"Wonder what took CNN so long to report what the rest of us did days ago. Doesn't advance their poisonous race narrative, that's why."
Another Twitter user said.
"A white man shoots 6 Asians and 2 white people, and he is a white supremacist. A middle eastern man shoots up a store, and well, 'Don't jump to conclusions,' they say. 2 young black girls assault a man with a taser and murder him, and it's an accident. Oh, the hypocrisy."
Yet another user said:
"If these girls were white, this headline would be worded much differently and the outrage factor would be dialed up."
It would have led to a CNN party if the two girls were White men.
As one person rightly noted:
"It's always interesting how CNN and other news organizations are highly selective when determining whether or not it's worth mentioning the demographics of those involved in incidents such as this."
The trouble is, no matter how much outrage the Crappy News Network receives as a result of how they report stories they aren't going to change as long as the outlets have the backing of rich leftists who propagate such crap.
The only bright side to this horror is that more than $400,000 had been raised for Anwar's family by Sunday afternoon.
