BREAKING NEWS! - LIV TYLER RUSHES TO AID OF ABUSED CHILD!

WHOA!!!!!
X17 caught Liv Tyler today, intervening in an instance of apparent child abuse as a woman hit a boy on his chest repeatedly on the street in Los Feliz in LA.
Tyler was driving alone and saw the incident taking place on the sidewalk - someone who appeared to be a grandmother or caretaker for a boy was screaming at him and hitting him on the chest as he sat in his stroller wailing.
Liv almost caused an accident and she hit the brakes, did a U-turn, and pulled over on the side of the road to reprimand the woman. Unfortunately the woman didn't speak English and kept telling Tyler "No entiendo. (I don't understand.)" Liv was telling her "You can't do that! I'm going to call the police; I'm going to call Child Services!"
Liv tried to comfort the crying boy and when she finally walked away to go back to her car, she told X17 photographers, "When I saw that, I couldn't take it. I had to do something." Our photog said she was visibly disturbed.
We've gotta give serious props to a person who would have the guts to stand up for a child who can't speak for himself or defend himself against an adult using unnecessary force. Liv cares ... and we love her for it!
It's reminiscent of 10,000 Maniacs' What's the Matter Here?
