While most of America slept, baseball negotiators have been working through the night, in hopes of landing a deal before this afternoon's strike deadline.
(------------)
[VO-NAT]
[SUPER=04-YES Network;]

Negotiators for the owners and the players are still at odds.
While insiders say both sides seem to be making concessions, the dollar amounts are still far apart.
They say they're not sure if they'll be able to save today's scheduled games.
A strike would be Major League Baseball's ninth work stopage since 18-72.

((((NAT SOUND OF MARCH))
Shouting "No peace no justice" the African American community took to the streets in Danville Thursday afternoon.
The reason?
The Rennie Hunt Case.
[SOT 9:14:00]
[IN Q=We've not gotten all the answers]
((RUSSELL WALLER/HUNT'S BROTHER-IN-LAW: WE'VE NOT GOTTEN ALL THE ANSWERS. MOST OF ALL WE DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY IT WAS NECESSARY FOR HIM TO BE KILLED.)) [Runs08]
[OUT Q=to be killed]

He was killed the night of May 11th.
Police shot Hunt after storming his apartment to rescue his girlfriend whom he reportedly was holding hostage.
What officers thought was a knife turned out to be a screwdriver.
Police also had no idea Hunt had a history of schizophrenia.
Regardless, many in the African American community feel officers didn't need to use lethal force.
[SOT 8:59:23]
[IN Q=Under the circumstances]
((NEAL MORRIS/DANVILLE POLICE CHIEF: UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT THE COLOR WAS THAT'S EXACTLY RIGHT IT WAS NOT A RACIAL ISSUE.)) [Runs06]
[OUT Q=a racial issue]

Many African Americans disagree.
They cite several examples where police reportedly shot or roughed up black suspects here in Danville.
These protestors say it is police brutality and are demanding changes be made in the department.
[SOT 14:32:16]
[IN Q=In response to the Rennie Hunt]
((JUSTIN McLEOD/REPORTING: IN RESPONSE TO THE RENNIE HUNT CASE, DANVILLE POLICE OFFICERS WILL SOON UNDERGO TRAINING IN RESOLUTION CONFLICT. HOWEVER, THE SOUTHERN CHRISTIAN LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE WANTS TO SEE THE DEPARTMENT GO A STEP FURTHER AND APPOINT A CITIZEN'S ADVISORY COMMITTEE.)) [Runs13]
[OUT Q=citizen's advisory commitee]
((QUICK NAT SOUND OF PROTEST AT COURTHOUSE STEPS))
That committee would look into future cases involving African Americans and the Danville Police Department.
[SOT 9:16:02]

((WILLIAM AVON KEEN/SCLC PRESIDENT: WE ALSO WANT A CITIZEN'S REVIEW BOARD THAT WOULD HAVE PROSECUTOR POWERS, POWERS TO BE ABLE TO PROSECUTE AN OFFICER WHO IS CRIMINAL.)) [Runs09]
[OUT Q=who is criminal]

Whether that will happen remains unclear.
After all, the police chief continues to stand by his officers and believes there is no racial tension here in the city.
