CARLSBAD CA April 20 2010 —- Three young San Marcos men were arrested this weekend on suspicion of viciously beating a downtown security guard who asked them to move along, a Carlsbad police lieutenant said.

A little after 2 a.m. Saturday, a 42-year-old security guard approached three drunken men in the 300 block of Carlsbad Boulevard and asked them to leave, Lt. Matt Magro said. One of the men jumped on his back, choked him and dragged him to the ground, where the three kicked, choked and punched him, Magro said. Two bystanders intervened, one disabling the attackers with pepper spray, the lieutenant said.

The guard was not hospitalized. Phillip Lare, 21; Justin Stambaugh, 22 and Drew Oldfield, 22, were all arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon.
