Speaking ASA
Spectator interference is specifically indentified, defined and remedied in 8.2.N, 8.5.L and POE #33. In each and every instance it involves the spectator trespassing into the field of play.
The umpire does not have any authority on what happens outside the fence that doesn't involve a coach, player or an otherwise defined team member.
