Police want public help to find the person who fired shots at a house in the Christchurch suburb of Wigram last week.

Officers were called to the property on Brian Keogh Lane following reports of loud bangs early last Thursday morning.

No-one was hurt, police said.

Police are appealing for sightings of anyone running towards Carrs Road along the Southern Motorway at the time, or dashcam footage from the motorway.
