I didn't realize the VA counties did as well -- so that would have been before any shooting even occurred in VA.

No, that was last Friday, three days ago, after the most recent shooting.

I would think this would be standard procedure around a metropolitan area. I live not far from K.C. This bi-state city, like any major city and D.C., has a perimeter highway. There is no distinction between Mo and KS should there be an Amber Alert, etc. I would guess it is the same around DC.
