A man has been arrested in relation to an incident outside the Al Noor Mosque in Christchurch where 43 Muslims were gunned down last month.

Police today appealed for help finding a man who caused a disturbance outside the mosque yesterday.

The man, who was wearing a Trump t-shirt, allegedly insulted those gathered outside the mosque.

Canterbury District Commander Superintendent John Price thanked the public for their assistance in locating the man.
