A man was arrested Tuesday after a chase in a stolen car ended in a crash in northwest Harris County, authorities said.

Police said an officer spotted a red car that fit the description of a vehicle that had been taken in a carjacking from the parking lot of a Target store off Highway 290 near Hollister. When the officer tried to pull over the driver, he sped away, police said.

Police said the driver ran away from the scene. Officers used K-9s to find the man and arrest him.
