Rob Reiner's son, Nick Reiner, has been taken into custody by Los Angeles authorities after the legendary Hollywood director was found dead alongside his wife in their Brentwood home, Business Insider confirmed.

Online records from the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department show that the younger 32-year-old Reiner was arrested on Monday and was being held on $4 million bail.

It was not immediately clear what charges he would face. It was also unclear whether he had retained an attorney.

Nick Reiner's parents, Rob and Michele Singer Reiner, were found dead in their home in Los Angeles on Sunday. The Los Angeles Police Department has said that it was investigating the deaths of the 78-year-old award-winning director-actor and his 68-year-old wife as an apparent homicide.

An LAPD spokesperson previously told Business Insider that at 3:38 p.m. on Sunday, the department received a medical aid call to the 200 Block of Chadbourne Avenue in Brentwood, Los Angeles.

The Associated Press, citing a law enforcement official briefed on the investigation, reported that the couple suffered stab wounds.

Rob Reiner was the director of notable Hollywood classics like "The Princess Bride" and "When Harry Met Sally." He also directed "Being Charlie," a movie about an addict that he wrote with his son, Nick.
