EFFECT: The ball is dead and the runner is out. All other runners must return to the last base legally touched at the time of the interference.
Did the ball pass an infielderer? I know you are trying to apply common sense here. However, assuming R2 was not in contact with the base, the rules do not allow any call other than "out" on the given play.

How silly of you to actually try to apply the rule to the situation...
