(Groton-AP, June 6, 2006 7:00 AM) _ The mother of a man who was shot and killed after allegedly breaking into a Dairy Queen store in Groton is suing the man who shot her son and Dairy Queen.

Police say that on June 28th of 2004, Jarion Childs allegedly broke into the Dairy Queen on Route One after it had closed. Childs was confronted by store manager Stephen Botchis, who shot him in the back and killed him after a struggle.

Eva Childs has sued Botchis, ice cream shop owner Matthew Botchis and the Dairy Queen company for the death of her son.

The lawsuit, which refers to Childs an "an invitee at the Dairy Queen," alleges that Stephen Botchis intended not only to frighten Childs with a handgun but cause his death by shooting him in the upper right and left sides of his back. It also charges that Botchis used excessive and deadly force when he should have known it could cause death.

A lawyer for those being sued says that his clients are "surprised and disappointed" by the lawsuit and that it has no merit.
