A woman was knocked to the ground and suffered a black eye in a late-night scuffle between boy racers and angry residents of the Christchurch suburb of Templeton, says a witness.
The Friday night incident follows a series of police raids on boy racers in Christchurch and surrounding towns. Police say about 25 cars have been impounded and as many people arrested on charges including dangerous driving, breaching licence conditions and performing burnouts.
The witness says a confrontation ended in fisticuffs and the woman was thrown to the ground.
