In a joint statement, Boston Police Commissioner William Evans and Suffolk County District Attorney Daniel Conley said more charges could be forthcoming against the men as the investigation unfolds.
Both Aguasvivas and Bain have served time in prison on firearms charges, according to the Boston Globe. In March, 2015, Aguasvivas was reportedly a passenger in the car driven by Angelo West, who, after being pulled over, then shot Boston Police Officer John Moynihan in the face. Police shot and killed West. Aguasvivas was not charged.
Attorneys for both suspects deny that their clients had any involvement with the shooting.
