Mitchell Gerard Guest {BSO}
A Coconut Creek man was arrested and faces felony gun and child abuse charges after police say he pointed a gun at a woman and threatened to kill her in the presence of a young child.
According to a Coconut Creek Police Department arrest report, Mitchell Gerard Guest, 30, was taken into custody on March 15 following an incident that began near Windmill Park and continued at a residence in the 4700 block of Northwest 7th Manor.
Records show officers responded to a 911 call around 8:50 p.m., where the victim reported that an argument between her and Guest escalated into death threats and near gunfire.
The report stated that Guest allegedly grabbed the woman by the throat before pulling out a gun from his waistband and pressing it against her stomach while commenting that he would shoot her and “bury her alive.”
The victim told police that a young child witnessed the incident and began crying. After the incident, the victim left the residence and called 911 from a nearby location.
Responding officers later located Guest and detained him. According to the report, Guest denied that anything had occurred but admitted to owning a firearm. Officers say they recovered a Smith & Wesson handgun from a vehicle associated with him.
Guest was arrested and booked into the Broward County Main Jail.
