Police are investigating an incident from Saturday night, which saw two vehicles chasing each other while shooting fireworks out of their windows in Christchurch.
The incident, which occurred in Selwyn at around 7pm on Saturday November 3, involved two cars believed to be a BMW and a Mazda RX8, according to police, with a witness saying that the vehicles then sped off in the direction of West Melton.
As a result, a fire broke out in a hedge, quickly spreading to other hedge-rows and gardens, destroying a ride-on lawnmower and forcing the evacuation of a nearby home.
The BMW is described as silver, with 18 inch mag wheels, while the RX8 is a distinctive metallic blue with tinted windows, black wheels, and white writing on an angle on the rear windscreen.
Christchurch police are urging anyone with information on the incident to contact them immediately.
