More than 200 people are expected to attend a rally in support of a man police said holed up in a house in Philadelphia this week, shooting six police officers before finally surrendering after an increasingly tense standoff.

Maurice Hill was identified as the man who repeatedly fired at police on Aug. 14 after police tried serving a narcotics warrant before his attorney arranged for him to surrender.
