In FED they specifically address when umpire jurisdiction begins and when it ends. In a nusthell, Umpire jurisdiction ends when we leave the field.
In the situation being discussed we vacate the area and then LEAVE the field and go to a safe spot. ONCE we LEAVE the field our jurisdiction ends. Players running onto the field AFTER we vacate the premises is now the responsibility of the AD/Coaches / league administrators / etc.
