Herbert Thomas Reiner Jr, also Herbert "Tom" Reiner Jr (September 21, 1916 – December 28, 1999) was an American diplomat, who played a pivotal role in apprehending Mahatma Gandhi's assassin, Nathuram Godse, in Birla House, New Delhi, on January 30, 1948. In the moments after the assassination, as the attending crowd stood stunned, Reiner rushed forward, grasping Godse by the shoulders, spinning him around, and thrusting him toward some nearby policemen, an action that was reported in newspapers around the world.
