That is just another example of someone failing to read.

1. The Phillistine archers hit Saul, he would surely die
from the wound (1 Sam 31:3).
2. Saul knowing he'd die, decided to fall on his own sword
to speed his death (1 Sam 31:4-5).
3. An Amalekite saw Saul fall on his sword and then went up
to him. Saul told him he was trying to die but his life
wouldn't end, so he asked that the Amalekite also try to
kill him. That was apparently enough to do him in.
(2 Sam 1:6-10)

Saul was killed by an Amalekite.
2 Samuel 1:8-10
And he [Saul] said unto me, Who art thou? And I answered him, I am an Amalekite. He said unto me again, Stand, I pray thee, upon me, and slay me. So I stood upon him, and slew him.

Saul was killed by the Philistines.

The Philistines had slain Saul.

God killed him.
1 Chronicles 10:14
So Saul died for his transgression which he committed against the LORD, even against the word of the LORD, which he kept not, and also for asking counsel of one that had a familiar spirit, to enquire of it; And enquired not of the LORD: therefore he slew him, and turned the kingdom unto David the son of Jesse.

The real truth (generally hushed up) is that Saul died when his bungee rope broke
