Brookhaven Drowning, Long Beach Island Beaches Reopen, Greek Election Results Effects

A young boy drowned Sunday afternoon while swimming in a pool at the Camelot Court apartment complex in Brookhaven, Delaware County. The boy was found at the bottom of the pool, responders administered CPR from the moment he was taken out of the water, he was then taken to Crozer-Chester Medical Center where he was pronounced dead a short time later.

All beaches on Long Beach Island were open to swimming on Sunday, a day after many were closed after medical waste and other debris washed up on shore. Officials say recent storms, high tides and wind conditions likely spread the debris. They also believe some of it may have come ashore from combined sewer overflow systems or from the inner shorelines of the New York/New Jersey harbor areas.

U.S. market analysts have been watching the Greek election results closely because they've been warning the outcome could have a huge impact on the U.S. economy. But some local economic experts say any impact would be long-term and, partially, psychological. Drexel professor Marco Airaudo says speculation has become a major factor in the global economy, because so much trade is in financial assets, as opposed to commodities with inherent value. Airaudo says thatâ€™s why U.S. markets may react out of proportion to the actual results of the Greek election.
