Video has emerged of a crowd taunting and throwing projectiles at police during an eight-hour standoff on Wednesday in Philadelphia during which six officers were shot and two others were held hostage.
Harrowing footage of the onslaught of AK-47 gunfire was captured by home surveillance camera across the street from the assault, as police also endure abuse from the bystanders who cheered on the suspect.
Shocking video and photos show crowds taunting cops and throwing things at them as they were responding to the shooter.
People can be seen shouting in the faces of police and lunging at officers stationed at the edge of the active shooting scene as they try to keep people away from the gunfire.
One photo shows the people gathered outside a Philadelphia home as the police battled the AK-47 wielding gunman.
'A major moment of disappointment this evening was watching a crowd of people taunt police officers, laughing and yelling at them in the midst of the gunfire,' tweeted CBS3 reporter Alexandria Hoff early on Thursday morning.
