Nassau officials claim Coliseum operators owe $2M in unpaid rent, utilities

Nassau officials reportedly issued a notice of default to the company, threatening to terminate its arena lease if rent and utilities are not paid in two weeks.
The move comes three weeks after the Coliseum shut down indefinitely.
