Director Rob Reiner, 78, and his wife, Michele Singer, 68, were found dead in their Los Angeles home . Media reports indicate their bodies suffered consistent knife wounds.
The Los Angeles Police Department's Robbery-Homicide Division is investigating the case, and has questioned one of the couple's sons, Nick Reiner.
Several U.S. media outlets initially reported that the 32-year-old son killed them, but police denied this. Los Angeles Police Deputy Chief Alan Hamilton stated at a press conference that "many family members are and will be questioned, but no one has been arrested and no one has been questioned as a suspect." Hamilton said investigators are working to obtain a search warrant before launching a thorough investigation inside and outside the residence.
When the firefighters arrived after a call around 3:30 PM local time, they could only confirm the deceased. The front door showed no signs of forced entry .
Reiner has directed around twenty films, including such successes as “When Harry Met Sally”, “Misery”, “A Few Good Men” and “Stand by Me” .
