CT Guns Hockey team, comprised of first responders from all over the state, are playing the Hartford Whalers and Hartford Wolfpack Alumni, Saturday February 24th at 4:00 pm. at the XL Center. The proceeds will benefit the Hartford Police Athletic League Hockey Program. 

Last night we were given a check for 3k from Aetna at the 3rd annual Hartford vs Aetna Benefit BB game. Then kids ate PLENTY of hot dogs and enjoyed Aetna sweeping the women and mens games. Kids in the front row had the most fun!!!

Peter Getz of Harford PAL donates to Sr. Teresa Fonti, House of Bread. The $500.00 donation will go towards her "Kid's Café" program which feeds over 500 children a day in the city.

Armani took a second to think about his answer, his hands on his hips, his eyes on the court in front of him.

“There are a lot of guns out here,” the 15-year-old finally said. “This keeps up us off the streets.”

He spoke just before 9 p.m., in the middle of a late-night open gym, a program a Hartford cop designed for kids like Armani.

It’s an effort spearheaded by Sgt. Steve Austin, a homegrown officer who recognizes the restorative power of rubber on hardwood.
