Summary
Penn Presbyterian discharged Officer Hector Rodriguez III over the weekend, just more than two weeks after he was shot 12 times in the Oct. 10 West Philadelphia ambush.
Video posted by Philadelphia police showed the 33-year-old leaving on a stretcher through a corridor of cheering officers and supporters before an ambulance took him to continue recovery.
That attack killed Rodriguez's partner, Officer Shane Seiber, 40, after the two responded to a 12:17 a.m. report of a man with a gun and were shot during a struggle on a porch.
Eric Lewis, 35, is jailed without bail and faces more than 70 state charges plus federal gun and robbery counts that carry up to life in prison; his expected Monday preliminary hearing was postponed.
