Home Improvement star Zachery Ty Bryan sues hotel for tasering him
Posted on July 8th, 2008 by Hot Momma
It really is tough being a childhood star it seems. Former Home Improvement actor Zachery Ty Bryan, now 26, who played Brad Taylor on “Home Improvement,” got into some sort of serious altercation at a hotel in April.
Zach is now suing Choice Hotels International over an incident back in April 2008. It was serious enough that he wound up getting tasered by one of the hotel’s managers. Zach claims he was staying at a hotel in San Diego when he and a few friends went across the street to grab a Gatorade. Hmm? When he came back from the “Gatorade run” just after midnight, his lawyer claims the hotel wouldn’t let him upstairs, since the room wasn’t in his name.
Then things got ugly.
Zach’s side of the story is that he tried explaining that his wife was in the room, but the hotel atendent refused to call her. He claims an off-duty manager, who was not involved in the initial argument, came out of nowhere and tasered Zach in the neck. Cops came but no charges were filed.
A hotel employee tells TMZ that Zach went nuts on the staff, a lot of alcohol was involved, and tasering the dude was the only safe bet.
Zach is suing for damages in excess of $25,000. A lawyer for the hotel had no comment.
Seems to be something not right about Zach’s story. Unless the hotel’s manager is a complete lunatic, it seems rather unbelievable that he would just come up out of nowhere and taser a guy – for what is implied to be no reason. But we will see if anything comes of it.
