Former Child Star Zachery Ty Bryan Sues Hotel For Assault

San Diego, CA (CNS) - Actor Zachery Ty Bryan is suing a hotel franchiswr over an incident in April wherein he was allegedly assaulted by the manager of the hotel he was staying in.

The former "Home Improvement" star has filed a lawsuit against Choice Hotels International over an April incident.

According to TMZ, he was staying at the Quality Inn Hotel in San Diego when he decided to grab a Gatorade with his friends. When he came back after midnight, the hotel wouldn't let him upstairs since his room wasn't booked on his name.

His attorney said Bryan tried to explain that his wife was in the room but the hotel refused to call her. And to make things worse, an off-duty manager came out of nowhere and used a taser gun on his neck.

The former child actor is seeking damages in excess of $25,000.

Bryan played the eldest son Brad Taylor in the hit TV series "Home Improvement," which ran from 1991 to 1999.
