Point to the original spot with your index finger and sweep the hand away from the spot in the direction they ran. (Signal #25 in the current book).

Don't forget to put you hand up first, palm open, as you blow the whistle to signal the violation.

Just to play devil's advocate, why does an official need to give signal #2 "stop clock" on this play? The ball is OOB for a designated-spot throw-in, so the clock MUST already be stopped.
Secondly, since the thrower is the one committing this violation before inbounding the ball, doesn't the administering official ALREADY have his hand up preparing to chop the time in? You wouldn't put your hand down first and then back up again as you blew the whistle for the violation, right?
