Two days after an allegedly drunk 66-year-old woman went barreling through a boat club in Michigan killing two kids at a birthday party, the mother of the victims filed a lawsuit against a bar claiming it was negligent when it served the suspect while she was “visibly intoxicated.”

According to the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office, Marshella Chidester crashed her car through the Swan Boat Club around 3 p.m. Saturday in in Berlin Charter Township, about 30 miles south of Detroit. She ended up about 25 feet inside the building, killing 8-year-old Alanah Phillips and her 4-year-old brother, Zayn Phillips, cops said. The crash also seriously injured their mother, Mariah Dodds, and 11-year-old brother.
