Video footage of a car believed to be linked to a woman's death and a highway shooting in north Queensland has been released by detectives.
The body of the 44-year-old mother of four was found at Bluewater in Townsville at 4.45pm on Saturday by teenagers on quad bikes.
Her boyfriend is now in custody.
Police are asking anyone with dashcam vision of a red 1997 Corolla hatch seen in Bluewater on Saturday, which travelled south to Proserpine between 10.30am and 11.30am, to come forward.
They allege its driver fired a shotgun at another vehicle, while travelling south on the Bruce Highway near Yarlboroo about 11.30am.
Police are also appealing to anyone who saw the car being driven erratically in the vicinity of Midge Point Road in Bloomsbury and the Bruce Highway around Bloomsbury, Yalboroo, Calen and Mount Ossa.
"The sudden death of the woman in Bluewater on Saturday is a tragedy," Inspector Jason Shepherd said.
"We are urging anyone with dashcam or information to contact police."
The community plays an important role in providing information including dashcam and CCTV footage, he said.
