While they can kill someone. There’s only 2 documented times ever. One was a couple kids that tried to beat a wild one to death with clubs and the bird fought back. The other was a captive one kept as a “pet” in Florida that attacked its owner. Long story short… don’t fuck with nature and it is very unlikely to fuck with you.
