JAILED: Armed police were called after Remus Cutea said he wanted help to stop him killing someone A DRUNK man brandished weapons and made chilling threats to slit the throats of police during a lengthy stand-off at his Windermere home. Remus Cutea, a 36-year-old former member of the Romanian Armed Forces, initially dialled 101, at 9am on November 30, telling a call handler he wanted help to stop him killing someone. Officers attended his Claife Avenue home and tried to engage with Cutea through an upstairs window. But after he made sword harm threats, armed police responded and the street was cordoned off.
