A North Carolina judge ruled Wednesday that video from four body cameras associated with the shooting of Andrew Brown Jr. will not be released publicly at this time.

The judge went to grant, in part, a petition from the Pasquotank County Sheriff's office allowing the disclosure of the body cameras to Brown's family and one of their legal representatives. The disclosure means the family and an attorney can view the videos but will not be given their own copies or allowed to make recordings.

Sheriff's deputies fatally shot Brown, 42, while trying to execute a warrant, authorities have said.
