Shia LaBeouf Reportedly Arrested Again

Shortly after it was revealed that LaBeouf had a new warrant out for his arrest surrounding the New Orleans brawl during Mardi Gras, he has reportedly been taken into custody.

According to TMZ, LaBeouf was arrested again on Saturday, February 28, in New Orleans and taken to the county jail due to a new charge of battery.

Earlier in the day, LaBeouf had a new warrant out for his arrest that stemmed from the prior incident. As of now, it is not confirmed if the new arrest is from the Mardi Gras brawl or another incident.

On Fat Tuesday, February 17, LaBeouf was involved in a brawl just outside the French Quarter.

A video captured after the incident showed LaBeouf from behind, shirtless, as he was talking towards a man outside of local establishment R Bar, before paramedics were seen attending to him.

An eyewitness to the situation told TMZ, that the bar’s staff escorted LaBeouf off the premises prior to the brawl. Following the incident, he reportedly walked down the block and then returned to the front of the bar more agitated and became physical.

Per a police report obtained by TMZ, LaBeouf shouted the slur multiple times at two men while punching them.

The report states the offensive language continued even after officers arrived and began questioning those involved. At one point, LaBeouf allegedly said, “These f–gots put me in jail. I’m a Catholic.”

A second victim involved in the fight told police that despite him attempting to defuse the situation, LaBeouf punched him in the nose.

The police report notes the injury may have caused a dislocation, and the man said he reset his nose himself before seeking medical treatment.

The judge stated that by using such words, he had threatened the safety of a marginalized community, stressing that they had gone through “so much terror already.”

During his court appearance, the judge ordered LaBeouf to participate in weekly drug tests. He was then ordered to take a drug test down the hall during the court hearing, and the results showed a substance was in his system.

The exact substance was not disclosed, and according to TMZ, it was tagged a “private health matter.” The judge set the actor’s bail at $100,000 and required him to get drug and alcohol treatment, in addition to the weekly drug tests.

Per TMZ, inside sources claim the actress wants him to go to rehab to “manage” his drinking issues, which have been an issue for several years.

The couple, who first met on the set of “Nymphomaniac” in 2012, dated on and off until 2016, when they decided to get married.

However, by 2018 the relationship was strained, leading to a temporary separation. Two years later, the couple reconciled and welcomed their first child, daughter Isabel, in 2022.

The two have reportedly been estranged for almost a year, but despite the distance, the actress is said to still look out for him and wants him to be present in their daughter’s life.

Prior to their separation, police received a 911 call for an alleged stalking incident and disturbance of the peace at the LaBeouf and Goth’s Los Angeles home on November 2, 2024.

No arrests were made and the incident was listed as “cleared.”
