John Moynihan, the Boston Police gang unit officer who was shot in the face Friday in Roxbury, has viewed surveillance video of the attack, according to a report in The Boston Globe.

Officials plan to release the video once the family of the alleged shooter, Angelo West, 41, has viewed it, a spokesman for Suffolk District Attorney Daniel F. Conley told the Globe.

West was shot to death by police after Moynihan was shot.

Moynihan remains hospitalized at the Boston Medical Center.
