DNA is only good to confirm they have the right guy. Ditching the attire you were filmed with is far more important.

DNA can also be matched using DNA services like 23 and me or whatever. If the shooter or a family member has ever traced their ancestry with that it could be used to catch them

Have they ever actually done that though? I don't think they've ever caught someone because they dropped a pube their aunt took a 23 and me.

All the cops have to do is ask the company. It's like ring doorbells.

They caught the golden state killer that way.

You sont even need to have sent them a sample. Tou just need about a dozen distant relatives you have never even heard of submit a sample and the authorities can track you down, like people you only share a set of great-grandparents.
