Wouldn't it be maybe just good game management to kill the play as soon as the runners made their one base and just avoid the potential for this situation all together? Or if you don't want to kill it maybe just point at the runner and give an out call so everyone knows what is going on.

Please, new umpires, ignore the preceding advice, as it is completely contradictory to the rulebook (interference on this runner is SPECIFICALLY ruled out by the book), and any advice leading to you stopping play while the ball is live is bad advice and a great way to get yourself into trouble.
