Philadelphia shooting: Gunman who injured six surrenders after stand-off
A suspect has been taken into custody after injuring six officers in a shootout in the US city of Philadelphia.
A gun battle broke out between police and a male shooter at around 16:30 local time (20:30 GMT).
The officers were serving a drugs warrant at a home in Philadelphia's Nicetown-Tiago neighbourhood when the gunman opened fire.
A lengthy stand-off ensued as police urged the gunman to surrender.
A video on social media purportedly shows the suspect, named by US media as Maurice Hill, leaving the house with his hands in the air.
The suspect's lawyer Shaka Johnson told CBS3 he helped police negotiate Mr Hill's surrender.
A Swat team rescued two officers and three others who were trapped inside the home with the gunman, police said.
