"They can't ID him through the girlfriend?"

Are we sure yet that there was a shooting of a girlfriend, or that - if there was - it was related to the later shootings? But you are right - if they know that a "girlfriend" was shot, it seems they'd know who she was a girlfriend OF.

There was a shooting, but like you said, we don't know if that was actually the same shooter from later or if the girlfriend/RA thing is even true. Rumors fly like crazy.
