What does "We just want to go on from here"mean?

Does "We just want to go on from here" mean "let me alone; let us continue our normal lives."?

Context:
Rick Heltebrake, the Boy Scout camp manager whose truck Dorner commandeered Tuesday after abandoning the Reynolds' car, said Wednesday that he was exhausted from taking calls from news media and well-wishers all night.
"We just want to go on from here," Heltebrake said, as he came by a police checkpoint in Angelus Oaks.
He described his encounter with the fugitive — which he said lasted about 10 seconds — as if it were a business transaction. A terrifying moment? "I didn't feel like it was. He said he didn't want to hurt me, and I believed him," he said.
