A man is facing charges after police say he led authorities on a chase where he allegedly hit a Reno Police Officer with a stolen car with an infant inside.

Police say Michael Segna was stopped by Reno Police while driving a stolen car on Thursday, but they say he took off, allegedly hitting the officer with the car - all the while the young child was inside the car. 

Later that day, authorities say a Carson City Deputy tried to stop Segna, but he again took off.

Eventually, the Regional Crime Suppression Unit found Segna alone inside the car near the Nugget Casino in Sparks, where authorities tried to arrest him again, but failed. 

Detectives were able finally track down Segna in the Stead area, where they say he ran away. A perimeter was set up and a K9 search was conducted. 

Eventually, Segna was arrested and booked into the Washoe County Jail. 

Segna is being charged with battery with a deadly weapon on an officer, possession of a stolen vehicle, resisting a public officer with a deadly weapon, child endangerment, reckless driving, and possession of a firearm by a prohibited person.

Authorities say the infant was found in Stead and placed with Child Protective Services.

Authorities say the officer was not seriously hurt.
