(KANSAS CITY, Mo., AP) — A Kansas City man faces kidnapping and other charges after authorities say he assaulted a woman, held her against her will and led police on a chase that ended with 10 people injured.

The Jackson County Prosecutor’s Office announced charges of kidnapping, armed criminal action, resisting arrest and driving with a revoked license against 25-year-old Hakeem K. Harris on Sunday.

According to court records, a woman told police Harris assaulted her and held her against her will for about two hours.
