Default Was it Fate? Or just Luck?

On the most recent turn of one of my PBW games (v1.49 + TDM 2.0), my Log had an Event notice of an outbreak of plague.

The unusual thing is that the plague broke out on a colony that isn't mine.

I do have a colony in that system, and am playing a race which is both Lucky and Deeply Religious; my colony has a Fate Shrine on it.

Has anybody else seen something like this? Why did I get the event notice? Did Lucky or the Fate Shrine "deflect" the event to another player? Did the other player get the Event notice in his Log, or will he only find out when more people die of plague next turn? (That Last question is theoretical; I've already warned the player that it happened to.)
