Members of the Maritime Union of New Zealand (MUNZ) are mourning today after president of their Lyttelton branch died in a port accident.
40 year old Brad Fletcher is the third person to die at Lyttelton Port in the past 12 months.

Maritime Union National Secretary Joe Fleetwood said the Union would be supporting his workmates and family.
