Week in Review: Oct. 9-15

Did you miss any of this week's news?

There isn't always time to sit down and read the news. So in case you missed any of the week's stories, here's a look at what happened in the greater Media area over the course of the week.

We had a photo gallery from both the Media Food Festival and Delco SPCA's Bark in the Park events. We gave you the September real estate closures for the region. We voted for Best Pizza Place this week and Pinocchio's Pizzeria won in Media. A 14 year old was arrested in connection with writing "kill" on a Penncrest bathroom wall and a Middletown woman was charged with a Broohaven bakery robbery. We started our Teacher Spotlight feature with a math teacher from Nativity BVM. Be sure to send your teacher nominations our way. And we reviewed Sang Kee Noodle Bowl in Edgmont Township this week.

Below is a full list of this week's stories.
