Catchpole. They could have heard a noise from the explosion.

Avi responds:

My guess: It was from the memory of the boy who lived. DD or
someone had extracted out the memory of those few instances
from him. Just to know what had happened and to remove those
horrible memories from him.

Then it happens that 'the boy who lived' hadn't seen his
fathers death, again may be it was stuck there, along with
LV's part in him. Not only powers but also the most recent
job LV had done had got stuck into his mind along with scar.

Welcoming a more factual analysis ;)
