That's how I read it. The violation and the end of the throw-in are simultaneous. NCAA clears this up by saying the throw-in ends when it is legally touched on the court.

Many in our state are being very liberal and letting the throwing team retain endline run privileges even if the foul or violation by the defense occurs after the throw-in ends, provided the ensuing throw-in is once again on the endline. They'll continue to do so until someone can show them a rule or case play that completely clears it up.

I don't agree with their interpretation, but they are right that it's somewhat ambiguous and there should be a definitive ruling - as long as the entire crew is consistent throughout a game, I'd be okay with them interpreting it this way.
