8.6.13.
Since the rule does not specifically address this issue, I could see how this rule could be construed to kill the ball and return runners.
This is admittedly a stretch. Then again if the word "maliciously" was removed from Art 14......but that would also be a stretch.
My issue with the play and applicable rules is that there was no interference. As noted, the runner did not break for home until F3 was knocked to the ground, so at the time of the collision, there was no play with which to interfere.
