Man accused of breaking into wife’s house and telling her new boyfriend, ‘I could cut you like butter’

After kicking in the door at his wife’s house, a jilted husband with a katana in hand had a message for the new boyfriend: “I could cut through you like butter.”
That’s what police allege Khna Chroeung said to the boyfriend while pointing a samurai sword at him on Saturday, allegations that prompted felony burglary and terrorizing charges to be filed earlier this week.
The 39-year-old native of Cambodia and co-owner of an Asian grocery store, Lotus Blossom, was also charged with carrying a concealed weapon due to a switchblade he allegedly had on his belt under his shirt when arrested.
Chroeung did not have a key to get into the house of his estranged wife, she told police. His son called 911 after seeing Chroeung grab the sword from a shed and kick down the wife’s back door, according to a police report included with the charges filed Monday.
The boyfriend told police he came downstairs to tell Chroeung to leave when he heard that he was breaking into the house and found him holding the sword. He claimed Chroeung swung the sword, knocking over a bottle of wine, before telling him he could cut him like butter.
Chroeung told officers he had no intention of hurting the man but was trying to scare him into leaving the house, which is owned by the mother of his wife.
He told police he accidentally broke the glass door of a china cabinet inside the home when he turned too quickly and hit it with the samurai sword.
A phone message left for Chroeung’s attorney, Mark Beauchene, was not returned on Wednesday.
Chroeung’s next appearance in court is scheduled for Oct. 21.

Life in the western country looks scary, isn't it?
Very scary indeed. Best to live some where else beside western country. Cambodia is the best place to live by far.
I dont get it . The story says his wife but if her is his wife why he had to break in to the house ? His wife , his house he should have got the key to it . If her is his ex-wife , its understandable.
Of course , Cambodia is the best and safe place to live . I like your comment 3:00 PM.Its just like slapping someone in the face and give him a big smile.
Cambodian is the shit hold right now...I dont want to live there. Youns every where. People all car about big Lexus cars and House At the end the Khmer was accused you (western Khmer) of some no good shit.

YEP pals, life in Western countries particularly in US is scary. Please don't even have any intention to come to live here, except me.
No one in Cambodia wants to come to US anymore after this news!!!!
don't take law into your own hand, ok, this is not a lawless country, ok! it could land you in jail! be smart, go on with your life, there are many fish in the water, don't be so desparate, if it meant to be it will, if not move on, don't try so hard and failed and get in trouble with the law, ok! wake up, people!
people should value their life more! it starts with loving yourself and taking care of yourself first, then other, ok!
