(CNN) Springfield, Massachusetts, police found three bodies at the home of a man charged with kidnapping a woman and were still searching the grounds on Friday, authorities said.

The Department Children and Families in Massachusetts also told CNN Friday it took a child into custody from the home, but authorities didn't provide any information about the child's condition or any relation to the suspect or the woman.

Police said they tried to pull over Stewart Weldon for a broken taillight on Sunday, when the situation escalated into a police chase.

Police said Weldon eventually crashed into a police cruiser and fought officers when they tried to arrest him. Police recovered two knives from his pockets, according to court records.

An injured woman who was in the car with the 40-year-old suspect thanked police for saving her life, telling officers through tears, "He's going to kill me," according to the police report.
