If he got to the Beltway in 10 minutes, how far do you think he could have gotten in 20 more minutes?

If he got to the Beltway insidof ten minutes, at that time of the morning, heading westward, he couldn't have left Montgomery County. But heading eastward, he could have been well into PG County, out US 50, or even up I-95 toward Baltimore. In addition, Georgia Ave. and Connecticut Ave. southbound would have taken him into the District very quickly. The distance to the DC line from the Beltway at Georgia Avenue is not far at all. It would be an easy matter to go down Georgia or even cut over to 16th St., both of which are main north-south drags into DC.

Connecticut Ave. is also a main drag headed into town, but because it swings west of Rock Creek, the drive to I-495 and the DC line is longer than on Georgia Ave. My money is on Georgia Avenue.

If this keeps up, eventually we will hear about more than one shot being heard at a shooting site as people are probably arming themselves and somebody is going to start shooting back when they hear gun shots coming from a wooded areas.

My money is on his escape route will take him right back into his apartment right there at the Northgate apartment complex. I say he has temporary quarters right there in those apartments. Just a hunch...
