ZaRio stands to be an inspiration to others while being himself, a true Gentleman.
ZaRio is an extremely talented artist, producer, and songwriter. Often being compared to music geniuses such as Michael Jackson, Marvin Gaye, and Brian McKnight, due to the likeness in musical style. The singer, songwriter was classically trained and is educated in the field of R&B by vocal coach, Cynnamyn.
At just 8 years old ZaRio discovered his passion for music. After joining his middle school choir, he found himself falling even more in love with the arts. Fast forward to his teenage years, where he began to leaad and organize the youth in Atlanta as well as other parts of the country.
That jump-started his love for activism, which led him to become a seasoned, motivational speaker with a passion for leadership, change, and personal development in his community and around the world. Between music and activism, ZaRio found it hard to balance both with his activism, usually outshining his love for music.
Now he’s set his sights on returning to music by releasing his debut single, She Don’t Know Love, with co-producer Errol “EZ” Taylor which includes catchy melodic sounds and beautiful harmonies that will touch your soul. ZaRio is bringing R&B back to the spotlight and doing so at an incredibly fast rate as he quickly climbs up the charts, and takes over streaming platforms as his latest song approaches 1,000,000 streams in its first few weeks and has hit the top ten on iTunes Charts.

ZaRio takes his role as an inspiration seriously, and in addition to his music, he heeded the call to activism, ZaRio envisioned his role as one of being a graceful leader in both music and manner, carrying himself as a gentleman in all ways. As in the video for “She Don’t Know Love”, he offers his admiration with respect and with true sincerity.
ZaRio also recently released a hit song to go along with his recent track which followed the singer through a beautiful snowy setting that takes your breath away in every scene. The video has attracted over 1,000,000 views globally in its first 30 days. The young star is just getting started as he plans to release his first EP, Sorry to Keep You Waiting, later in the year as a nod to R&B music fans across the world. You can download and stream his music on all platforms right now.
#9 on the R&B iTunes Charts

Summer is upon us, but its not too late to sign up your child or loved one for one of our exciting Youth Summer Camps.
Earlier this year, the City of New Haven dedicated $1.5 million toward youth engagement as part of our Summer Reset Program. Those funds are helping us expand summer camps, create a counselor-in-training programs, as well as expand the options of outdoor youth activities – such as kayaking, biking, and archery.
This past year has presented a number of challenges, particularly challenges shouldered by young people. Summer camps are a great way for children to exercise their mind and body, re-connect with old friends, and make some new friends along the way.
Summer camps begin June 28th with additional sessions starting in mid and late July. Camps are open to all kids and are available for kids 5 years of age or older.
You can find more information on how to sign up your child for summer camp online by visiting the Youth and Rec department’s page on Newhaven.gov or by calling (203) 946-7582

NEW HAVEN, Conn. – Following the sixth homicide of 2021 and multiple violent acts of the weekend, New Haven Mayor Justin Elicker and New Haven Police Chief Otoniel Reyes released statements ahead of a press conference to be held Monday morning.
Mayor Elicker released the following statement:
Over the weekend we experienced multiple violent acts in our community, including those involving a New Haven Public Schools teacher, a New Haven Public Schools administrator, and a graduate student at Yale. I am deeply saddened that we lost Yale School of Environment student Kevin Jiang last night to gun violence. Kevin would have celebrated his 27th birthday next week.
To those who continue to perpetrate these crimes: you undermine the safety of our residents and yourselves. You continue to promote fear for our safety in our everyday lives. We, as a community, will not stand for this and we will be relentless in efforts to provide justice for all of the victims, their families and loved ones. Addressing and eradicating gun violence takes serious action both in the short-term and the long-term—and the City of New Haven is committed to that. If you have any information pertaining to any ongoing investigations call the NHPD at (203) 946-6304.
Chief Reyes is asking for the public’s help in providing information in these cases. Chief Reyes added, “Our department is working around the clock to solve these most recent acts of violence. We will bring all of our resources to bear to ensure the safety of our city.”

Mayor Elicker Releases Statement on Home Shooting Friday Evening
NEW HAVEN, Conn. – Yesterday evening Assistant Superintendent of New Haven Public Schools, Dr. Paul Whyte, and his family were at home when gun fire opened on their house. No one was physically hurt from the gunfire, there was exterior damage sustained to their home. New Haven Mayor Justin Elicker released the following statement:
I went to see Dr. Whyte and his family last night upon hearing about the shooting incident. I was relieved in this moment, traumatic as it was, to hear that Dr. Whyte and his family were physically unharmed by the gunfire. This moment is also a reminder that, with crime on the rise nationally and in our City, bullets have no name. We are very lucky in this instance that no one was hurt. This stresses the important work we are doing as a City to stop gun violence in both the short-term and long-term.
To those who continue to wreak havoc in our communities, divide us further with gun violence, and have no respect for the safety of our neighbors: we are putting you on notice. Your violent actions will have real consequences. The New Haven Police Department is working diligently to get to the bottom of this instance, as well as the many other violent acts that have continued to plague our community. If you have any information pertaining to any ongoing investigations call the NHPD at (203) 946-6304.
I understand that many who are affiliated with group-involved violence and street groups often don’t know how to shake their allegiance to this group identity. We are ready to support you if you want to leave that life behind.

New Haven Police Make Gun and Stolen Car Arrests
NEW HAVEN, Conn. – Throughout the past year, New Haven has experienced a spike in motor vehicle thefts. As of November 8th, New Haven Police crime analysts have reported that 570 vehicles have been reported stolen in the city of New Haven, a 1.7% increase from 2019. This spike in motor vehicle thefts is not exclusive to New Haven as surrounding towns and cities have also experienced an increase. Many of these motor vehicle thefts are a crime of opportunity; with victims leaving their vehicles unsecure, often with the keys left inside of the vehicle and the engine running.
On Friday, November 20th, at approximately 9:30 am, the National Insurance Crime Bureau called into the New Haven Police Department and reported that there were several stolen vehicles in the area of Greenwood Street, located in the Hill North Section of the City.
Officer Christopher Lawrence canvassed the area and located one of these vehicles, a 2015 Black Ford Fusion parked in front of 25-27 Greenwood Street. Officer Lawrence confirmed that the Ford Fusion had been stolen out of Hamden on November 18th.
Officer Lawrence exited his patrol vehicle to address the stolen Ford Fusion and discovered that the vehicle was running, and there were three juveniles asleep in the car. (It was later discovered that the juveniles were thirteen, fourteen, and fifteen years of age).
Officer Lawrence, along with the responding Officers, exited their patrol vehicles and attempted to open the doors of the stolen Ford Fusion, only to find that the doors were locked. Officer Lawrence wanted to decrease any chance of the juveniles fleeing the area, so he made the decision to break the driver side window with a window punch that is attached to his pocketknife. Upon breaking the driver side window, chards of glass penetrated Officer Lawrence’s hand.
Officer Lawrence reached inside of the stolen Ford Fusion and unlocked the doors. The operator of the vehicle, a fifteen-year-old juvenile male, was taken out and detained.
While this was taking place, Officer Lozada observed the backseat passenger, a thirteen-year-old juvenile male, reach into his waistband and pull out a firearm. Officers drew their department-issued firearms and gave the backseat passenger numerous orders to drop the firearm. After a brief standoff, the backseat passenger placed the firearm down and was taken out of the vehicle and detained.
The front seat passenger of the stolen Ford Fusion, a fourteen-year-old juvenile male, was taken out of the vehicle and detained.
A secondary pat-down of all the occupants of the stolen Ford Fusion revealed that the operator of the vehicle was also in possession of a firearm. Both recovered firearms were loaded with a round in the chamber.
Officers later confirmed that the operator of the vehicle, the fifteen-year-old juvenile, had three outstanding warrants, two (2) from the city of New Haven for drug sales and violation of probation and one (1) from the town of Stratford for Burglary. The fifteen-year-old was additionally charged with Carrying a pistol without a permit, Weapon in a motor vehicle, Larceny in the Second Degree, and Conspiracy to Commit Larceny in the Second Degree
The rear passenger of the stolen Ford Fusion, the thirteen-year-old juvenile male, had two outstanding warrants, one (1) from the city of New Haven and one (1) from the town of West Haven, both for stolen automobiles. The thirteen-year-old was additionally with Carrying a pistol without a permit, Weapon in a motor vehicle, Larceny in the Second Degree and Conspiracy to Commit Larceny in the Second Degree.
The fourteen-year-old juvenile male who was seated on the front passenger side of the stolen Ford Fusion was placed under arrest and charged with Larceny in the Second Degree and Conspiracy to Commit Larceny in the Second Degree.
All Officers involved resorted to their training and handled a potentially deadly situation with poise and calm. Apart from Officer Lawrence suffering minor cuts to his hand, no one was harmed, and all three juveniles were taken into custody.
In addition to the juvenile arrests, Officers recovered three additional stolen vehicles in the immediate area, a Buick stolen from the town of Hamden, a Nissan stolen from the town of West Haven and a Mitsubishi stolen from the city of New Haven.
