You forget rule 11.1.c - "If parents or fans stationed behind the dugout complain about a ruling, the umpire should abandon rules 1-10, and implement whatever actions deemed necessary to appease said fans."
Good grief - what a horrible call (doubly so in light of the fact that he did nothing at the moment of the supposed interference, and then reacted to fans. Awful.
