I hope it is the right guy, but I think you are a little too worried about driving in Columbus.

I drive the south outerbelt of I-270 all of the time. Hundreds of thousands take that road every day without incident.

Looks like they have only identified him. They don't have him in custody and don't know where he is. They also think he purchased another gun.
