    Police say they're making good progress on investigations into a woman being found critically injured, in a Christchurch park


    The victim was found at the Richmond Village Green last Wednesday, and remains in hospital.

    She's been able to speak to Police, who are also interviewing witnesses and family members.

    There's no ongoing risk to the public, but Police have additional patrols in the area to ensure the community feels safe.

    They're still appealing for information relating to the incident.
