MORGANTOWN, W.Va. -- The families of five people killed in a fiery 2007 crash are suing a convicted drunken driver and two bars that served him for negligence and wrongful death.

A lawsuit filed in Monongalia County Circuit Court names Brian Stone, Automatic Slim's Hot Spot and Novichenk's Tailgater's Pub 2 as defendants.

The complaint says bar employees knew or should have known Mr. Stone was already impaired when they served him the night of the crash. Police said his blood alcohol content was nearly three times the state's legal limit.

Calls to Novichenk's and the owner of the Hot Spot went unanswered today.
