After leaving the Ministry of Magic, Dumbledore hurried to Mrs. Figg's home to learn the details of what had happened.

From Mrs. Figg's memories, Dumbledore saw the scene of two Dementors attacking Harry and his cousin Dudley. Though it relieved him, it also left him worried.

Dumbledore handed the matter to Alastor. It was not suitable for him to meet Harry in person at the moment, lest it bring Harry unnecessary trouble.
