The Independent Police Conduct Authority has found that the police were not justified in carrying out a pursuit which led to the death of an innocent motorist in Christchurch.
Nurse Kenneth McCaul, who was 64, was killed when a Toyota being chased by the police smashed into his Hyundai, as he was heading to work just before 4 in the morning in October last year.
Eighteen-year-old Jayden Breakwell, who was driving the fleeing vehicle, passed through eight red lights before the fatal crash.
