A tweet shared by NEXTA stated: “Actor Shia LaBeouf was taken into custody for a drunken outburst in New Orleans. It’s reported that on Sunday night, he arrived at a 24-hour bar intoxicated and shirtless, attempting to become a celebrity bartender. After staff refused his request and he inquired, ‘Do you know…'”. The tweet included a photo link, further illustrating the situation.
LaBeouf was detained and faced two counts of simple assault. However, recent reports suggest that he has since been released and has committed to attending upcoming court hearings.

Since then, he has been on a turbulent journey toward achieving lasting sobriety through various therapy and recovery programs.
