I had a similar event--forget which event I was reffing at--on a practice day. Except the HP ran around him outside the box and the media person was from his team.

First I called a foul (it's practice, so it gives everybody a clue that this ain't good but doesn't hurt anybody). Then, after the match, I told the media dude in no uncertain terms to stay out of the box, and told the HP that if someone was where they shouldn't be, myself included, run 'em over. Had no further issues.
