Boom. That's where things really screwed up. First of all, the referee shouldn't even have to ask for a 30 second clock - the timer should know better. (I'm a timer for my high school gym - that's required if you are going to do it.)
A timer should not do anything until the Official tells him so, not trying to be high and mighty, but the official signals to the time keeper when to start/stop game clock and when to start timing a timeout.

For example, I do not start a 30 second TO until the players are at their benches, unless there is a player who is moving at a snails pace. If you start the clock when the official walks to the table you could lose 1/2 of the time.

I would of let him shoot again, as well.
This is a great place to learn about rules, listen to what the others have said above, this is not a correctable error.
