This is a good enough reason to ban outside ones assigned forum. Also notifying the mods with the button would have been good too, though.

The basic guideline I've always tried to give new mods is this:

Unless it's a unique situation in which taking fast action would appear to be more important than taking the correct action, don't ban members for posts they make outside your assigned forum, unless it's a spammer. All mods are allowed to ban spammers in any forum
