Police Department, Leslie Delasbour, Fox 26 news. The family of a man who was shot to death by Houston police officer earlier this month says they want answers. Fox 26 is Damali Keith joins us in north Houston. This is after speaking with them. Don details how the shooting happened. According to HPD, two female officers were patrolling what investigators call this high crime area near the North Freeway and Turner Street. And the two officers came upon two men standing outside this gas station. One of the men ended up shot and killed by one of the officers. Right now, we're just, you know, we don't have any closure or anything as to what happened. We're still we're still waiting for answers, no one has reached out to us from homicide. I had to call myself. And that's how I found out, is I called the medical examiner's office myself after trying to call, hospitals, called HPD, and nobody was there. Like nope, we don't have him in the system. We don't have him. It was August 7th when Houston police investigators say 42 year old Edmundo Meza was outside the store with another man. Oh 9:37 p.m. our officers riding the North Patrol happened to come to this area, which is known as one of our high crime areas. Different types of criminal activity that does occur here in this area. So they were just patrolling the area. Assistant Chief Seaforth says the two officers discovered Mesa had an outstanding warrant and a gun in his waistband as they tried to arrest him. Based on what I witnessed from inside the store that was shown to me on the video, this was a complete overreaction. On behalf of the HPD officer, you see this gentleman get into a verbal disagreement with the officer, but he never grabbed the gun. He never pulled the gun out. I have a lot of questions concerning what is supposed to have what happened in this news release. The officer who shot Meza is listed as Jillian McGowan, an officer. Jay McGowan shot and killed an unarmed man in 2012 but was cleared of wrongdoing. We don't have confirmation from police that this is the same officer. It's been very hard. You know, we were I was very close. You know, we were very close to my brother. This is his son. Loved ones say they hope HPD releases video of the shooting soon so they can see for themselves what happened. I am trying to prepare myself for that. As much as I don't want to see that, it's something that has to be done. The Houston Police Department is expected to release the officer's body ca
