Like a penny dropped from the Empire State building they accelerate to terminal velocity and that's it. At that speed they are not likely to kill anyone.
If bullet falls directly downwards then propably but often that is not a case. When people shoot to air they rarely take care that they are shooting exactly upwards. If there is even a little bit angle then bullet flies in arch like artillery shell.
