You might call both if runner altered his/her path or reacted to the fielder in the basepath without the ball, but even so, the INT overrides the OBS. You did right.

Note that this play is often not even OBS. It is not illegal to be in the basepath without the ball. It is only illegal if that action causes a runner to react. OBS requires both.
