American director Rob Reiner and his wife were found dead at their southern California mansion, US media reported on Sunday, December 15, as the Los Angeles mayor said she was "heartbroken" by their loss.
Reiner and his wife, Michele Singer, were found dead Sunday at their home in the Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles. A law enforcement official briefed on the investigation confirmed that Reiner and Singer were the victims. The official could not publicly discuss details of the investigation and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.
Authorities were investigating an "apparent homicide," said Captain Mike Bland with the Los Angeles Police Department. The Los Angeles Fire Department said it responded to a medical aid request shortly after 3:30 p.m.
Local broadcaster NBCLA and other media outlets reported two people were found dead at the home of the director of When Harry Met Sally and Princess Bride. NBC media later cited a source close to the family, saying that the couple had been found dead of what appeared to be stab wounds.
