You definitely don't have enough information to make that decision (or at least, you have not given it to us). I will say, however, that the referee telling you "They were simultaneous, so no free throws" erred. He gets paid to make the decision as to whether the foul occurred before or after the buzzer - simultaneous is not an option. There are no ties between unrelated events. At some point, two similarly timed events become too close together for a human to be able to differentiate with certainty... but there ARE no ties, and certainly no rules regarding them.
