PHOENIX —<\/strong> Video released Tuesday shows officers responding to a report of someone pointing a gun from the window of an Arizona hotel, but a judge barred the release of additional footage showing an officer later shooting and killing an unarmed man at the scene.<\/p>\n

The shaky body-camera footage was taken during a Jan. 18 call that ended with Officer Philip Brailsford fatally shooting Daniel Shaver of Granbury, Texas, in Mesa<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Brailsford has pleaded not guilty to a charge of second-degree murder in Shaver’s death.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Sam Myers ordered portions of the video released after Shaver’s widow and news organizations called for it to be unsealed as a way to hold police accountable and serve the public interest.<\/p>\n

However, the order bars the public release of the face-to-face encounter between officers and Shaver until Brailsford’s case is resolved.<\/p>\n
