Spells could of came in all Snapes and sizes but luckily, the Cruciatus Curse or Imperius Curse were not used. With no complaints of injuries, deputies, of curse, decided to not jump to any Ron conclusions on what happened and instead solve the Riddle with an investigation. 

No clear motive was determined for the incident but deputies could not confirm or deny if the disturbance was the result of a lack of butterbeer at the bar or that the Quidditch match was not playing on the television.
