Christchurch Police are urging Upper Riccarton residents who may have had a prowler or noted any unusual activity in the area this morning to contact them.

We are in the early stages of understanding what has occurred today and if you noted a prowler on your property, or any unusual or suspicious activity, we urge you to contact us as soon as possible.
