    Three people have been arrested in Christchurch, tracked by police using a commercial helicopter


    A police spokesperson's confirmed the helicopter was deployed about 1pm yesterday - as they looked for a group of offenders who'd taken two vehicles from a private property near Memorial Avenue.

    The vehicles were allegedly being driven dangerously through several suburbs.

    Three people are due in court, facing burglary charges.
