We started the week without a federal government and now we have one, but not without some tough words from an area Congressman. We also saw a bad bicycle accident and an arrest at a local bank.
Here;s a look back:
The federal government re-opened for business just in time to avoid Thursday's debt ceiling deadline, but it was a rocky road for House Republicans. Peter King, R-Seaford went so far as saying the GOP "is going nuts."
While the federal government was rebooting, a state program held an important meeting on the aftermath of Superstorm Sandy.
An 88-year-old man was struck by a car and thrown off his bicycle on Tuesday according to cops.
A Wantagh bank teller was arrested Friday for allegedly stealing from an elderly customer.
And Seaford geared up for Saturday's homecoming game.
