Canterbury police are asking for information from the public after two people were spotted tampering with power lines and transformer boxes in Christchurch.
Senior Sergeant Roy Appley also asked for information about a vehicle seen near the damaged power lines, a white flat-deck ute.
The plea follows several reports to police about “suspicious activity” around power lines and transformer boxes in Christchurch’s red zone.
