The shooting location in DC is less than 100 meters from the border. He could have been shooting from Maryland...there's a park right there, in fact. Why go down into town? There's plenty of targets in the suburbs where the getaways are easier and the cops fewer. Security in the District proper is probably kind of tight these days.

Two of the shootings were of people in the parking lots of Micheal's crafts stores. (one in Spotsylvania, the other on Georgia Avenue in Aspen Hill) The Octrober 3 shootings seem to all have been not far from a run of CSX railroad tracks. One of them was the barely-in-DC hit, which was also on Georgia Avenue.
