    Police are responding to reports of a robbery and assault in Christchurch


    About 4pm authorities were alerted to a robbery on Waltham's Ensors Road - with a person threatened with a knife and had their phone taken.

    Soon after, reports were received of a second assault on Isabella Place, with a stabbing.

    Police are working to locate and arrest the alleged offender.

    A St John spokesperson says one person has been taken to hospital by ambulance with serious injuries.
