As was previously stated, if you don't call the T on B1, you have to call the foul on A1. Unless you think letting A1 jump on top of him is appropriate punishment for trying to "sell" a PC foul.
Usually I agree with you, Snaq, but "selling" (per OP) something that doesn't exist is fraud. This is most likely a htbt but unless the kid was kinda red-faced with an "oops, he didn't run me down after all" expression (i.e. "I guess self-preservation wasn't an issue after all ..."), it was just another one of the little darlin's being a smart-aleck. Seen it too often. Manytimes with Mommy's accompanying accusations against that mean old man in the stripes missing a "clear" foul.
