A man is facing a slew of charges after Clare County deputies say he led them on a chase and crashed.
Deputies say they were trying to stop Ronald McClure for a broken brake light in Hayes Township Sunday morning, but he sped off.
They chased him before a deputy was able to lay down a stop stick.
Deputies say McClure then swerved to try and hit that deputy but ended up popping two tires on the stop stick.
He then drove through a church parking lot, back on the road, down an embankment and hit several trees.
McClure tried to run, but was found hiding under some trees.
He’s now charged with a range of crimes including, assault with a dangerous weapon, resisting police causing injury, and driving while intoxicated.
McClure’s also charged with child abuse and malicious use of a telephone.
It’s not clear what those charges stem from.
