There may not have been witnesses to the actual attack,
but there could have been other Wizarding families in 
the general vicinity of Godric's Hollow just as there
are in Ottery St. Catchpole.  They could have heard a 
noise from the explosion.  They probably wouldn't have 
gotten too close. Once it got into the rumour mill, the 
news would have had all night to get around and it would 
have spread like wildfire.

Even if Hagrid wasn't the only source, I'm sure he played 
his part.
