CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Chanting ”No Justice! No Peace!” as they converged outside Bank of America Stadium, about 100 people peacefully demonstrated the fatal police shooting of a black man.

A heavy police presence surrounded the stadium, where officers dressed in black riot gear in preparation for a sixth day of protests following the shooting death of Keith Scott on Tuesday night. Any concerns that protests would keep fans from entering Sunday’s game between the Carolina Panthers and Minnesota Vikings were unfounded.
