Dramatic moment actor Rob Reiner’s son was handcuffed and arrested for k!lling his parents is released by cops

The dramatic moment Rob Reiner’s son Nick was arrested on Sunday, Dec. 14, for allegedly k!lling his parents was captured in photos that have been shared by authorities.

The LAPD Gang and Narcotics Unit on Monday, Dec. 15, shared photos of Nick Reiner, 32, being detained near a Metro station just 15 miles from Rob and Michele Reiner’s California home.

Nick Reiner is seen being forced to the ground with his hands cuffed behind his back, according to one photo.

Another photo showed law enforcement pushing the suspect against the front of a squad car.

In the caption, the unit only identified the man as “a double homicide suspect.”

The arrest was made by US Marshals with the assistance of the LAPD’s robbery homicide division, according to the post.

Nick Reiner, who has a prominent history dealing with drug addiction and mental health struggles, was reportedly placed on su!cide watch after his arrest. He was apprehended on murd£r charges for allegedly stabbing his famed director father and mother Sunday afternoon.

He is being held without bail at the Twin Towers Correctional Facility in Los Angeles.

Sources told The Post that they saw Nick, Rob, and Michele Reiner in the midst of a “very loud argument” at Conan O’Brien’s Christmas party on Saturday.

They speculated the fight may have been about Nick Reiner’s refusal to undergo another round at a drug rehabilitation facility after an 17 prior stays in rehab.

“They had had an argument at Conan’s holiday party, and Rob had been telling people that they’re scared for Nick and scared that his mental state was deteriorating,’’ a lifelong family friend who lives near the Reiner home told The Post.

The neighbor claimed that Nick Reiner was “badly addicted to a combo of opiates and heroin.”

Romy Reiner, Nick Reiner’s 28-year-old sister who found their butchered parents, told investigators that he “should be a suspect” because he’s “dangerous,” sources said.

Just months before the murd£r of Reiner and his wife, the entire family was pictured at the “Spinal Tap II: The End Continues” Los Angeles premiere on Sept. 9, 2025.
