John Wilkes Booth was shot and killed by Union Army Sergeant Boston Corbett at Garrett's Farm in Port Royal, Caroline County, Virginia on April 26, 1865, twelve days after he assassinated President Lincoln.
Yes, he was shot and killed by soldiers on April 26th 1865 in a farm house.
Yes.
On April 26, 1865, John Wilkes Booth and his accomplice David Herald were in Virginia, and made their way into Port Royal, Virginia. The Union Calvary had followed leads that two men fitting Booth and Herald's description were seen near the Rappahannock River, in Port Royal, Virginia. At approximately 2am, the Calvary eventually made their way to a tobacco farm owned by a Richard Garrett. Herald and Booth were sleeping in the farmer's barn. A Lieutenant detective from the Calvary yelled out to the two to surrender. After a few moments, Booth said he'd never surrender, then a few minutes later, Booth yelled out "Oh, Captain, there's a man in here who wants to surrender awful bad.", and Herald's voice then could be heard saying that he wanted to surrender. Herald came out slowly, and was slammed to the ground by the Calvary, and subsequently tied to a tree.
Still Booth would not come out. Using straw and brush, the cavalry set the barn on fire. Booth was visible to the soldiers because the barn was full of cracks and knotholes.
Sergeant Boston Corbett fired at Booth, hitting him in the neck. Booth was not dead but had been paralyzed. He was then dragged from the burning barn, and the Calvary moved Booth a couple of times, finally placing him on the porch of the farmer's house. Booth died at about 7am, on the same morning, April 26, 1865.

no
he got caught and was killed in jail
Booth was a supporter of the south and didn't believe what Lincoln was doing was civil. He organized a plan to take out three major leaders of the union including Lincoln. Why at Ford's Theatre? That is where Lincoln was going to be and Ford's Theatre was Booth's home turf. For an assassin, having the home field advantage greatly improved the chances of success.

There are no reports about whether or not John Wilkes Booth ever performed in Salisbury, NC. Since he was an actor and often traveled, there is a good chance that he did perform in Salisbury.

"Sic semper tyrannis!" ("Thus always to tyrants") was what John Wilkes Booth said before shooting Abraham Lincoln.
An assassination is when someone, usually a person holding an important political or social office, is murdered by surprise. President Lincoln was assassinated by John Wilkes Booth, a man who was angry because Lincoln had freed the slaves and because the confederate states were losing the Civil War. President Lincoln was shot as he was attending a play at Ford's Theater.
He managed to avoid capture until 26 April 1865 at Garrett's farm south of Port Royal, Virginia. He was offered the chance to surrender but refused and he was shot in the neck and died on the farmhouse porch.
