A subsidiary of General Electric has filed suit against Springfield-based electronics store chain Sixth Ave. Electronics for allegedly defaulting on $9.8 million in debt, Bloomberg news reports.

According to the Bloomberg report, GE Commercial Distribution Finance Corp. says that  Sixth Ave. has failed to repay inventory financing money the GE subsidiary has provided to the consumer electronics chain since 2007.

Ed's note: The original version of this story said Sixth Ave. owed $9.8 billion, not $9.8 million. We corrected the number in the story and regret the error.
