Journalists gathered outside the Los Angeles home of actor-director Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele, who were found dead on Sunday (December 14). On Monday, police announced that their son had been jailed as a suspect in the killing.

Nick Reiner, 32, who had struggled with substance abuse, was taken into custody on Sunday night and "booked for murder" in the county jail, where he remained without bail, the police department said in a statement.

Homicide detectives would present their case on Tuesday to the county district attorney's office to consider formal charges, police said.

Rob Reiner, 78, director of such beloved films as "When Harry Met Sally..." and "The Princess Bride," and his wife Michele, 70, were found slain at their home in the upscale Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles on Sunday afternoon.

The Los Angeles Police Department said its investigation "determined that the Reiners were the victims of homicide" and their son "was responsible for their deaths."
