A Houston choir director and gospel singer was fatally shot by a police officer during a traffic stop on Friday, prompting fury from the man's family who has demanded that the department release footage of the killing.

Adrian Medearis, 48, who was black, was shot during an alleged scuffle with a police officer who stopped him on suspicion of drunken driving early Friday.

Houston Police Chief Art Acevedo said Monday afternoon that he would not release the video until he could meet with the family and personally show it to them.
