I could be wrong, but I believe that this refers to Ron's injuries 
just following the Shreiking Shack scene, and to whatever spell it 
was that Wormtail used to knock Ron unconscious. I think that Snape, 
seeing Ron knocked out on the groud, infered that Black had done 
something to him, and told this version to DD. Harry (or Hermy) 
tells DD that it wasn't Sirius simply because it wasn't. And 
Pettigrew did attack Ron. That's all, I could be wrong.
