\n Private security guards hired to watch over a Seattle park overtaken by protesters left during their first shift after they were threatened and harassed.<\/p>\n

The two armed guards from Jaguar Security Firm and owner Ricky McGhee were confronted Tuesday night by a group of protesters in Cal Anderson Park, some armed with \u201cpoles and sticks,\u201d McGhee told Fox News<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs soon as we entered that park, they started verbally attacking us \u2026 calling us all kinds of names like \u2018sellouts\u2019 and [telling us] what they would do to us,\u201d McGhee said.<\/p>\n

The security team had been hired by the city to keep people out of the park from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. after it\u2019d been occupied by protesters throughout August.<\/p>\n

The mob shined bright lights at McGhee and his employees, making it hard for them to make out their identities, he said.<\/p>\n

McGhee said his armed guards were \u201cseasoned\u201d but \u201cnot trying to go to jail\u201d \u2014 so he called police to intervene.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese people that are doing that stuff, they\u2019re putting themselves in danger,\u201d he said. \u201cWe could have engaged right when they put those lights in our eyes and they had those weapons in their hands.\u201d<\/p>\n

The guards didn\u2019t return Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

Rachel Schulkin, a spokeswoman for Seattle Parks and Recreation, said the city is working with Jaguar on a \u201cnight-by-night\u201d basis and assesses the need for security at the park each day.<\/p>\n

\u201cJaguar Security opted to leave the park on Tuesday evening as the large crowd of protesters was not responding to requests to disperse, continued to harass the security guards, and out of a desire to not escalate the situation,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, McGhee said he\u2019s working with the city on a plan so that his employees can safely return.<\/p>\n

Police cleaned up the park earlier this week, recovering a cache of weapons, including a machete, hatchet, homemade spike strip<\/a>es and makeshift shields.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s located in the same district where demonstrators set up the Capitol Hill Organized Protest zone before it was cleared out in July.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
