The charges include illegally possessing a firearm, taking Rodriguez’s gun and firing at officers. Lewis is also accused of shooting at nine other people during the incident. He is barred from possessing firearms because of prior convictions involving weapons and assault, prosecutors said.

Philadelphia prosecutors have separately charged Lewis with murder, attempted murder of a law enforcement officer and other offenses. Metcalf said federal prosecution remains significant regardless of the outcome of the state case. If convicted on the federal charges, Lewis faces a minimum sentence of 10 years and as much as life in prison, Metcalf said.

Seiber, an Air Force veteran, was buried Tuesday. He was posthumously promoted to sergeant and received the department’s Medal of Honor and Purple Heart. Rodriguez survived what Police Commissioner Kevin Bethel described as devastating injuries and is continuing to recover.

The shooting has also renewed scrutiny of Lewis’ 2019 acquittal in a separate murder case. District Attorney Larry Krasner has attributed that outcome to a botched police investigation. Bethel said the officer involved in that investigation was fired last year, while cautioning that reviewing past failures will not undo the harm caused to Seiber and Rodriguez. In a statement Thursday, Krasner voiced support for the federal charges and said his office would work with law enforcement partners.

Bethel called the indictment another step toward justice for the two officers. Metcalf said federal authorities and Philadelphia police worked together on the investigation after the shooting.
