On the morning of October 9, 2025, deputies responded to Space Coast Jr./Sr. High School after receiving reports of a suspicious vehicle parked on the sidewalk just outside the school’s east pedestrian gate.
The vehicle — a black Jeep registered to Marvin Otis Guth — was unoccupied when deputies arrived. Surveillance footage shows Guth parking the Jeep outside the gate at approximately 8:43 a.m. and then walking south toward his residence on Addie Avenue, roughly 0.2 miles away. He was later located and arrested at his home on an active bench warrant for failure to appear in court earlier that morning.
Because of Guth’s previous threats to kill students and law enforcement officers, as well as a court order requiring him to stay 1,000 feet away from any school property, both Space Coast Jr./Sr. High School and Enterprise Elementary were placed on lockdown out of an abundance of caution while deputies secured the area and searched for him.
