An Alabama man who was arrested last week following riots at the U.S. Capitol now faces additional federal weapons charges.

Lonnie Leroy Coffman, a 70-year old from Falkville, Alabama, faces 17 federal indictments including five counts of unlawfully carrying multiple pistols, a rifle, and a shotgun; one count of unlawful possession of an ammunition feeding device; five counts of unlawful possession of ammunition; and six counts possessing unregistered firearms — including 11 explosives known as Molotov cocktails.

Coffman is one of 13 people who face federal charges. Dozens of others have been charged in Superior Court with unlawful entry, firearms-related crimes and curfew violations, according to news outlets.
