Please tell me it shoots downwards and not up into the air?

Starter pistols, the ones for races.

Why is shooting a starter pistol in the air a bad thing?
-
It won't hurt no one, but it's the same principle as yelling fire in a loaded theater, in that it can get someone hurt if they freak out.

I can't see how a starter gun is going to cause a panic leading to crushing/trampling of masses, or anything remotely close to those kinds of consequences.
During daytime hours it's usually pretty legal to make all kinds of sounds.
If someone wants to nitpick the "gun" here, just rig an internal combustion engine that backfires as loud as a gun, or literally put in a speaker / horn that can produce the same sound.
There's ways around all the little "but what about" in this scenario.

People wont be scared of a backfiring car, The whole dumb plan hinges on the neighborhood being afraid for their lives. wouldn't surprise me if this made other crime rise too.

Shooting actually straight up is very safe, at least for people on the ground. The terminal velocity of a bullet is fast enough to make you say "ouch", but not much else. Problems can arise if you're shooting up-ish.
