Throwin Plane

NFHS Rules:

1) During a throwin, defender reaches through the plane of the boundary line. Call: Warning or Technical Foul (if after one of the four delay warnings) (Case Book 7.6.3).

2) During a throwin, defender reaches through the plane of the boundary line and slaps the ball out of the inbounder's hands. Call: Technical Foul (Case Book 9.2.11)

3) During a throwin, defender reaches through the plane of the boundary line and slaps the arm of the inbounder. Call: Intentional Personal Foul (Case Book 10.3.11).

4) During a throwin, inbounder holds the ball through the plane of the boundary line and the defender slaps the ball away from the inounder. Call: Legal Play, No Violation (Case Book 7.6.3)

5) During a throwin, inbounder holds the ball through the plane of the boundary line and the defender gets both hands on the ball to attempt a steal but the inbounder won't let go of the ball. Call: Held Ball, Possession Arrow (Case Book 7.6.3)

6) During a throwin, inbounder holds the ball through the plane of the boundary line and the defender slaps the arm (also through the plane of the boundary line) of the inbounder. Call: ????? Intentional Personal Foul ????? or ????? Common Personal Foul ?????

The sixth play situation came up at a new members clinic last night. It was asked by one of the new member candidates. Several veteran officials discussed the play situation after the meeting, but we couldn't come up with a correct answer based on a rule book, case book, or test question citation.

Most of us thought that once the inbounder brought his or her arms and the ball over the plane of the boundary line that the defender would be allowed to do anything that he or she would be otherwise allowed to do on the court, slap the ball away for a steal, get involved with a held ball situation, or commit a common personal foul.

Can anyone come up with a rule book, case book, or test question citation for either an Intentional Personal Foul or a Common Personal Foul as the correct call for play situation number six above ?
