Oct. 2, 2013: Westchester County District Attorney Janet DiFiore announced that Randall (Randy) Cutler of 10 Westway, Bronxville, pled guilty yesterday (October 1) to one count of criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree, a class "D" violent felony.
On November 1, 2012, at 8:30 am, Bronxville police were called to the above address on a report of a "domestic dispute" between the defendant and his brother. The residence is owned by the parents of the defendant and his brother. The defendant was living there and had a bedroom on the third floor.
This incident occurred in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. The electricity was off in the house and the dispute arose over the use of a generator. The defendant began to argue with his brother and sister-in-law, at which point the defendant pointed a firearm at his brother from the staircase.
Responding police officers detained the defendant and subsequently arrested him. The police obtained a search warrant for the premises, after which the defendant was charged.
Cutler faces a maximum sentence of seven years in state prison. Sentencing will be on January 8, 2014.
The defendant’s cash bail of $50,000 was continued.
Assistant District Attorney Patrick Moore, chief of the firearms bureau, is prosecuting the case.

Bronxville is a quaint village (one square mile) located just 16 miles north of midtown Manhattan (roughly 30 minutes on the train) and has a population of approximately 6,500. It is known as a premier community with an excellent public school (K-12) and easy access to Manhattan. Bronxville offers many amenities including an attractive business district, a hospital (Lawrence Hospital), public paddle and tennis courts, fine dining at local restaurants, two private country clubs and a community library.
While the earliest settlers of Bronxville date back to the first half of the 18th century, the history of the modern suburb of Bronxville began in 1890 when William Van Duzer Lawrence purchased a farm and commissioned the architect, William A. Bates, to design a planned community of houses for well-known artists and professionals that became a thriving art colony. This community, now called Lawrence Park, is listed on the National register of Historic Places and many of the homes still have artists’ studios. A neighborhood association within Lawrence Park called “The Hilltop Association” keeps this heritage alive with art shows and other events for neighbors.
Bronxville offers many charming neighborhoods as well as a variety of living options for residents including single family homes, town houses, cooperatives and condominiums. One of the chief benefits of living in “the village” is that your children can attend the Bronxville School.
The Bronxville postal zone (10708, known as “Bronxville PO”) includes the village of Bronxville as well as the Chester Heights section of Eastchester, parts of Tuckahoe and the Lawrence Park West, Cedar Knolls, Armour Villa and Longvale sections of Yonkers. Many of these areas have their own distinct character. For instance, the Armour Villa section has many historic homes and even has its own newsletter called “The Villa Voice” which reports on neighborhood news.
