There are differences in this crime because there was no immediate access to a highway.

huh? I thought the strip mall was surrounded by highways. 7 of them in fact.

Reporting what was said on CNN early this morning. Have since read there are several highways near the location of the shooting. Have also read on thread from last night that Freepers who know the area well said that the area is "traffic light hell" and hard to believe the shooter chose this area due to heavy traffic at all times of day and night.

highways yes, but lights every step of the way!

Well, technically. It's actually the convergence of several huge streets that have "highway" status. I used to live in Shirlington about two miles down the road. That place is TRAFFIC HELL. The "highways" have red lights every few feet, and Seven Corners itself is nothing but a gridlocked intersection of seven major streets.
