Chaz & AJ, who host mornings on Connoisseur's Rock WPLR/New Haven and Classic Rock WFOX, are holding a benefit for Brett Morgan, a New Britain police officer who was run over and dragged by a stolen car last month. The "Stand Up for Brett" comedy benefit is set for Friday, February 21 at Trinity on Main in New Britain.
Morgan was seriously injured in the January 19 incident and, after several surgeries, has been released from the hospital to continue his therapy and rehabilitation.
The comedians set to perform Friday include Dave Reilly (seen on MTV and Fox), and Gary Petinella, with Joey Mitchell hosting. Fairfield Police Chief Gary MacNamara will also make an appearance. Tickets are $15 and are available online at http://www.wplr.com/ and http://www.959thefox.com/ until 5 p.m. Thursday, and after that can be purchased at the door. All proceeds will go to the Brett Morgan Benefit Fund to help Morgan and his family with medical expenses.
