Now, a fatal police shooting in Georgia leads to questions about how officers reacted, killing a man in his family's front yard.

Twenty-year-old Ricky Boyd was shot outside his grandmother's home three months ago today. The Savannah police have said Boyd was a suspect in a murder, and, along with U.S. Marshals, went to the house to arrest him.

They initially said Boyd fired first and was killed. They later said he walked out with a firearm, which was eventually found to be a BB gun. The family deny that Boyd was involved with a murder and say he was unarmed. The BB gun, they said, was later found nearly 45 feet from the house.

They are now asking the police department to release body-cam video from the shooting.

The police department, the state's attorney and the Georgia Bureau of Investigation all wouldn't comment on a pending investigation.

We talked earlier today with Boyd's mother, Jameilla Smiley, and her attorney, Will Claiborne.

Jameilla Smiley and Will Claiborne, welcome to the "NewsHour." Thank you for making the time.

Ms. Smiley, I would like to start by asking you about a key piece of evidence that a lot of people are focused on right now. That is the body camera footage. You want to see that released.

You have seen footage from one of the officers who was on scene that day. Can you take a moment and describe for me what you saw in that footage?
