Lindsay Lohan’s father is arrested for domestic violence after he ‘attacked estranged wife’

Lindsay Lohan’s father has been arrested over a domestic violence dispute with his estranged wife.  

Michael Lohan, 59, was taken into custody on Monday after Kate Major went to police and claimed that he’d attacked her at her home The Hamptons, according to a police report obtained by DailyMail.com. 

Major, who filed for separation from Lohan after one year of marriage in 2015, said he became violent with her after she confronted him about his internet browsing history, which apparently showed that he had been searching for escort services in Houston while he was on a trip there.  

In a handwritten statement included in the police report, Major describes how Lohan allegedly threw plastic clothing hangers at her before grabbing her by the throat, leaving her with visible bruises. 

She claimed that Lohan threatened to stab her and berated her as she tried to get away from him, calling her a ‘braindead whore’.

DailyMail.com captured a photo of Lohan being led to a police vehicle in handcuffs outside Major’s apartment in Southampton, New York. 

He was booked on one count of ‘criminal obstruction of breathing’ and one count of second-degree harassment, according to the police report.  

A deputy wrote in the report that Major was looking for her pet hamster when Lohan began throwing hangers at her. 

The report states that Major was holding a plastic ‘hamster ball’ when Lohan squeezed her hand so hard that the ball shattered.

He then allegedly threw Major’s cellphone to the ground and continued throwing hangers at her before grabbing her by the neck. 

As Major tried to free herself from his grip, Lohan began shouting insults at her, calling her a ‘waste of life’ and a ‘whore’, the report states.  

Lohan also allegedly told Major that he ‘could stab her and get away with her’. 

Major left the home and immediately went to see her attorney, who accompanied her to the Southampton Village Police station. 

The deputy who wrote the report said there were visible bruises on the right side of Major’s neck and her voice was hoarse.

Major’s handwritten statement in the report reads: ‘Michael has been following my car and also called the police on me. Today he got extremely violent and threatened to stab me. He called me a whore and threw hangers across the room. 

‘He threw my phone. Put his hand around the left side of my neck with his hand. My neck hurts and is bruised pushing into my throat in rage. He also grabbed my right wrist causing the hamster wheel to crack. My right wrist is bruised and sore.

‘He said he just wanted to stab me and end it all. He kept saying I was brain dead – I leave too many lights on and I’m a waste of life. He threatened to call the cops and put me away for 20 years. 

‘This has been an ongoing an abusive controlling hell of a life. Today he really scared me and I was scared to call 911 and my hand is sore and hard to write. 

‘When he was choking me, my throat is all hoarse and in pain now. When I was looking for the hamster he kicked me on the right side of my butt as I bent down.’

Lohan and Major tied the knot in 2014 and separated a year later. They have two sons together. 

This is not the first time Lohan has been arrested for domestic violence against Major. 

The former Wall Street trader, who previously dealt with his struggles with alcoholism and cocaine use on the VH1 series Celebrity Rehab, was arrested for attacking Major, who was his girlfriend at the time, in October 2011. 

The latest police report notes that during that incident Lohan ‘attempted to throw [Major] off a balcony’. 

It also states that the first domestic violence incident between the pair occurred in 2009, when Lohan allegedly pushed Major during an argument.
