Two men who are wanted for the alleged murder of Queensland woman Chloe Jade Mason are thought to be camping in the NSW bush, police have revealed.

Police have issued arrest warrants for 29-year-old Codye Thomson and 32-year-old Kaine Thomson-Gleeson, who allegedly assaulted and shot 23-year-old Mason dead just after midnight on Railway Parade, Caboolture on December 22, 2024.

After releasing images of the two men last week, police have now said they believe the pair travelled to northern NSW in a white Holden Commodore.

Investigators believe the two men are camping, and want to speak to anyone in the region who may have seen them or their car – registered with Queensland plate 953 HO4.

"Obviously, these men have travelled some distance from Caboolture to across the border and would've interacted with members of the public along their journey," Queensland Police Detective Inspector David Harbison said.

"I would appeal to anyone in northern New South Wales or even those in southern Queensland who believe they may have seen these men or this vehicle to come forward to police.

"Any little bit of information can go far in helping us in this investigation."

Police have urged anyone who sees the pair not to approach them, but to call triple zero immediately.
