BOSTON (AP) — A company owned by former Massachusetts candidate for governor and convenience store magnate Christy Mihos has filed for bankruptcy after racking up as much as $10 million in debt.

Mihos is embroiled in a bitter divorce and charges that he assaulted his wife.
He coulnd't be reached Saturday and his attorney didn't immediately return a call for comment.
Mihos ran unsuccessfully for governor as an independent in 2006 and again as a Republican in 2010.
