Good Morning,
Today's issue is packed. In Bellport, Chiplytics raised $4.5 million and opened a microelectronics lab. Local Pulse has the latest on a Medford house fire, a larceny suspect Suffolk police want identified, and a lawsuit against the Farmingville Fire Department.
Two things happen today: Suffolk police join National Coffee with a Cop Day, and volunteers plant a pollinator garden at North Corey Park in Blue Point from 9 a.m. to noon.
Thanks for reading
