Lindsay Lohan has been criticised after posting a video showing her attempting to separate two children from their parents.
The Instagram live video sees the 32-year-old approach an apparently homeless family who she identifies as "Syrian refugees."
The actress becomes increasingly hostile, and as the family walked away, she accused the parents of "child trafficking" and "ruining Arab culture".
Towards the end of the 10-minute video, the encounter became physical as Ms Lohan is seemingly pushed to the floor by the mother.
Many have branded the video as "shocking", "disgusting" and "uncomfortable to watch".
Its amazing how a woman can walk up to an innocent family and try to kidnap one of their children while streaming the crime live, and there are no talks of charging this person #LindsayLohan pic.twitter.com/KwPuBvgOjt
