A leading fire investigator in Christchurch says security cameras could help catch arsonists on the Port Hills.
It comes after a number of fires on the Port Hills over the past few days, including a scrub fire which led to the evacuation of 16 homes in Clifton on Tuesday, one in Hillsborough on Friday, which burned about 20ha, and four suspicious blazes last Wednesday.
There have been up to 10 suspicious fires over the past 10 days.
