Here comes Mark, trying to complicate things. No, it's not the L's call. However, it doesn't matter who made the call. It's obvious that the official who made the call realized he erred or he would have stuck with his call. Team with the AP gets the ball.

I am not trying to complicate things. I am not ridiculing the person who posted the play, but the play is poorly worded and I would not allow my student officials ask how to handle the play if one of them asked in the form that play was posted in the thread. The poster wanted to know how to handle the situation, and to give him an answer that would be credible I wanted to know how the play actually went down.
Having said what I said, I went back and re-read the post. It appears the that C/T official had ruled that the free throw had not touched the rim, and the L decided to watch the ball and thought he saw something different. The L does not have this call. If I were the C/T in this play, my ruling would stand. The shooting team's player committed a free throw violation and the shooting team's opponents get the ball for a throw-in nearest the spot of the violation. There is no need to use the AP Arrow in this play. The L has to remember to officiate his primary and to trust his partner.

 Yep, I agree. No point in getting it right.
