On my game on Friday we had someone in the student section trying to use a air horn during the game. All we did was stop the game and make the game management aware of this. But this only took a couple of seconds really. Because some of the teachers and other administrators went to the area to make sure that nothing was happening and trying to find out who had the device. We did not stop the game until they found out, we continued to play the game.

Peace
I agree I would not stop the game for an air horn. But in the original post it said objects were being thrown onto the court. Depending on the object and wheter or not they would pose a threat to the players on the court I would stop play until the culprits are removed. Say they were throwing BB's or something that could cause a player to slip and fall. By not stopping the game until the culprits are tossed you have let the game preceeed in a dangerous environment and open yourself up for potential problems.
