Not such a great news. Shia was reportedly involved in a bar brawl at Sherman Oaks, California. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Shia ‘got punched in the face’ after exchanging words with another man.
According to Sammy Cutler, who answered the phone at Mad Bull’s Tavern, the Transformers star was involved in an altercation with another bar patron around 1 a.m. Saturday morning.
“There was an exchange of words [with another man] and Shia got punched in the face,” said Cultler.
Fortuitously, Los Angeles Police officers “just happened to be driving by” and saw the crowd around the fracas.
Both the thespian and the unnamed sparring partner were briefly question and placed in handcuffs, a LAPD officer from the Van Nuys Community Police Station confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter Saturday afternoon.
No charges were filed and both men declined to press charges at time of the dust-up (both were subsequently released on site shortly after 1 a.m.).
Lebeouf is something of a regular at the Mad Dog, Cutler noted, before adding that several other famous faces were also drinking at the upscale, yet unlikely, new hotspot on Ventura Boulevard last night.
I’ll be following the updates of this obnoxious case and hoping that Shia will be okay.
