Dramatic photos have captured the moment Nick Reiner was arrested on suspicion of murdering his parents, Rob and Michele Reiner.

One of the images, originally published by the Los Angeles The Police Department’s (LAPD) Narcotics and Gang Division shows law enforcement surrounding the 32-year-old man as he was restrained by an officer. Another image shows Nick Reiner handcuffed, standing near the front of a police car.

Nick Reiner, who was confirmed as a suspect in the deaths of “The Princess Bride” director and his wife, Michele Singer Reiner, on Monday, is expected to appear in Los Angeles court Tuesday morning.

“On December 14, 2025, at approximately 3:40 p.m., Los Angeles Police Department officers assigned to the West Los Angeles Division responded to a call of a death investigation in the 200 block of South Chadbourne Avenue. Once inside the residence, officers discovered two victims, who were later identified as Robert and Michele Reiner. The Homicide and Robbery Division, Special Homicide Section (RHD/HSS), responded to the residence and began an investigation into the circumstances of their deaths,” the LAPD said Monday.
