Warrants for the arrest of Codye Thomson and Kaine Thomson-Gleeson have been issued over the killing of 23-year-old in Caboolture. Two brothers wanted for an alleged shooting murder north of Brisbane last month are now on the run after they were released after being questioned last month, according to Queensland police.
Police named 29-year-old Codye Thomson and 32-year-old Kaine Thomson-Gleeson as wanted for the alleged offence, on Friday. The pair, who are believed to be camping in northern New South Wales, are considered dangerous, police said. Warrants were issued for their arrest for the alleged murder of Chloe Jade Mason, 23, on Friday.
She was allegedly gunned down after a chase at Caboolture’s Railway Parade in the early hours of 22 December. The brothers were interviewed by police that day but released without charge pending further investigation, DI David Harbison said. “At that early stage of the investigation there was simply insufficient evidence available to indicate their involvement with this homicide,” he told reporters on Friday.
They are now believed to be camping in northern NSW. DI Harbison said a police investigation established Mason knew the brothers and had visited a Railway Parade address. It’s alleged an altercation occurred and that “the deceased received a gunshot wound during that altercation and the deceased subsequently died”, DI Harbison said.
