foul out and free throws with a T

I was scorekeeping a game and this happened. Player A drives to basket and is fouled in the act of shooting. He is frustered for some reason and kicks the ball. Whack! Officials get together and decides to adminster the foul throws first and then the T next. However, as player A shots the second, I realize that the T was his fifth. I was not able to notify the officials until after the second throw. I told the officials that was his fifth, and he was removed before the T shots. The question, if I was able to notify the officials about the fifth foul before his free throws, what should have happened? The crew discussed the situation and we had two paths discussed, both of which made sense. Thank you.
