He couldn't have fired it straight up, must have been at a pretty good angle.

If the bullet was fired straight up and then fell back to earth at the speed gravity and the atmosphere would allow it, then i doubt it would have killed anyone.

An SKS fires a NATO 7.62 x 39 round same as a AK or Ruger Mini 30. These are similar to the popular hunting round Winchester .308 (7.62 x 51) and the popular WWII 30/06 (7.62x59) all of these are hi velocity NATO rounds. He probably fired it off on a 45 degree angle and the projectile was still travelling under muzzle velocity power.

Oh i forgot to add: he should have just used a shotgun with birdshot, much safer!
