Anyway, lets be conservative and say he can hit someone from 1000 yards. Thats a long way. Now imagine yourself as a sniper on top of a building 1000 yards away. You hear screams, someone goes down, what do you do. You havent seen the flash. You havent heard the shot. You see a white van and BANG!, you waste another innocent.
Snipers are not the answer. IMHO the most likley end to this will be either the guy get bored and starts a new hobby, or hell get unlucky and some armed citizen will come round the corner at the right moment. Im sure there are plenty armed citizens walking around right now.

well said, everything. personally I think those retired soldiers or soldiers on vacations can hunt this guy down and shoot the crap out of him.
