Two people were found dead Sunday afternoon inside a Brentwood home owned by director and actor Rob Reiner, multiple law enforcement sources told NBCLA.

The LA Fire Department said a man and a woman were found deceased inside, approximately 78 and 68 years old.

LAPD Robbery Homicide Division detectives were assigned to the case. Several other LAPD officials said they were aware of the investigation but could not share any information.

There is a large police presence at the home Sunday evening.

LAFD paramedics were called to the home on Chadbourne Avenue around 3:30 p.m.

Within a few minutes, LAPD officers were dispatched to the home for a report of an, "ambulance death investigation," which is LAPD terminology when officers are called by firefighters to the discovery of a death.

Neighbors said Reiner and his wife live in the home, and property records indicate they own the home.

The ages appear consistent with the deceased being Reiner and his wife.

 

[Tealgrove]

Oh no!

My heart just sank.

 

[Jovi Girl]

RR is 78.

 

[Tealgrove]

The ages appear consistent with the deceased being Reiner and his wife.

I thought the same.

 

[Herat]

Terrible news.

I just don't know what to think.

Stunned, both. The house and trees look decorated with white lights.

This is just shaping up to be a horrendous day for news. UGH.

What are we thinking - foul play or M/S?

 

[MassGuy]

This has taken a turn:

LAPD sources told ABC News that police initially began a death investigation that later developed into a murder case.

The LAPD's Robbery-Homicide Division is leading the investigation, and the department's senior leadership is responding to the scene.

No, dammit! Too horrible too much at once!

Could also be CO poisoning. But I just saw that it’s a homicide investigation so that’s looking very unlikely now

 

[MassGuy]

You’d think they’d have private security. Very strange.

I just looked it up. You are correct.

I sure hope it was something noncriminal, like carbon monoxide.

Terrible news!!

 

[gitana1]

He has made me laugh, most of my life. What on earth happened?

My first kneejerk thought was hanta virus, which would absolutely not have been where I went before the Hackman case.

MOO

 

[Tealgrove]

It sounds as if a call was made from the house for medical assistance which is why LAFD showed up first. It was the Fire Dept that then contacted LE upon finding the bodies.

Shocked to hear this. RIP.

We'll have to let the authorities do their jobs.

Remember how long it took to figure out how Gene Hackman and his wife died?
