Three teenagers are planning a march in Christchurch this weekend to "spread love" in the city after Friday's tragic shootings.

St Andrew's College students Ella Clearwater, Marshall Setu and Manaia Butler, all 16, are organising the March for Love event on Saturday at North Hagley Park.

Rolleston Ave would close so the group could march from North Hagley Park to the flowers outside the botanic gardens. The march will start at 10am.

Scott Esdaile is organising another event called Remember Those Who Lost Their Lives 15-3-19 on Sunday from 5pm to 7pm, also at North Hagley Park.

The event was originally planned for Tuesday in Cathedral Square but it was postponed until Thursday, then again until Saturday, out of respect for the Muslim community.

Police are investigating the theft of equipment from a locomotive at Ashburton railway yard sometime between Wednesday afternoon and Thursday morning.

Police were advised at 11am on Thursday morning that a large quantity of equipment, including 24 railway detonators, a fire extinguisher and a hand held communications radio were taken.

“The detonators are placed on the tracks to act as a warning there is an emergency ahead. They are pressure detonators, so when a train runs over them, they explode as a warning,” says Senior Sergeant Matt Emery.

“Our concern is if these items are found by someone who doesn’t understand what they are, they could cause serious injuries.”

The detonators are round, orange and marked as ‘Explosive.’

Anyone with information is asked to call Ashburton Police on 03 307 8400 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
