Organisers of the London Triathlon face a huge fine after a pensioner was
killed by a cyclist on the racecourse.

Over in uklm there is debate about saying X "killed" Y without some finding
that X was actually responsible for it (civilly or criminally). *This case
seems to be another example - the codger died in a collision with the
cyclist, but the killing was arguably done by the organisers who failed to
ensure safe arrangements. *If someone wanders onto an F1 racetrack and is
fatally injured, we wouldn't say "Lewis Hamilton killed a pensioner...."

Some would, especially Ferrari fanboys.
