That same type of play occurred around here in a high school game. My response was similar to Mike's, kill the play but the local UIC pointed out that the ball is live and the defense should also know what the count is and that the ball is live and in play.
Now that being said, if this happened more than once a game or a certain team is identified as (pulling this type of play), then I certainly would do some preventitive officiating by putting the coach on notice that this will be interference and an out on a subsequent occurance.
