Looks like the front fell off...

The front of Ship 25 has been spotted from the coast Florida after the events witnessed during IFT-2.
It's possible this was the debris big enough to be visible when burning up near Puerto Rico.
Some speculate the mostly empty tanks might have allowed the front to separate at a welding line and escape the FTS during the much smaller explosion.
The FAA might not be happy about this but we can't say anything for sure.

Watch the three center engines on Starship’s upper stage gimbaling just after separation. Right before they ignite for hot-staging, the engines angle themselves outward to direct their exhaust towards the vented interstage before re-centering for ascent.
