I'm thinking this is interference and BR should be out, no? What responsibility does R1 have for getting out of the way once he's called out?
This is nothing. It is not INT, the runner was doing exactly what the runner is supposed to do. AT NO TIME, is a runner required to move out of the way simply because the defense retired them. If anything, moving out of the way and interfering with the defense IS an act of INT.
