Canterbury's top police officer believes the current policies around arming New Zealand police officers are appropriate.

Multiple investigations are underway following a double police shooting in Christchurch that left one dead and another seriously injured.

The Council of Licensed Firearms Owners says it's an example of what happens when police aren't trained to handle firearms in high pressure situations.
