TMZ is reporting that actor and professional train wreck Shia LaBeouf was arrested for public intoxication in Austin just moments ago.
LaBeouf is reportedly in town for the Austin City Limits music festival. He was partying on 6th Street when police spotted him acting erratically and ordered him to calm down.
When he refused and became belligerent, they slapped the cuffs on him and took him into custody.
Witnesses say the troubled 29-year-old was very clearly drunk or on drugs.
Sadly, this kind of behavior has become a pattern for the former child star.
LaBeouf was arrested for disorderly conduct in June of 2014.
Shortly thereafter, he checked into rehab, and he claims to have been sober ever since. While several insiders claimed that he was committed to abstaining from alcohol, LaBeouf’s bad behavior showed no signs of letting up.
In July of 2015, an intense fight between LaBeouf and girlfriend Mia Goth was captured on video.
The actor was heard threatening Goth’s life, and she broke with him shortly thereafter.
Sources say LaBeouf’s latest arrest will only result in a misdemeanor public intoxication charge, but considering his long history of bar fights, arrests and unstable behavior, it’s unlikely that he’ll get off with a slap on the wrist.
Story developing.
