Actor Shia LaBeouf has been charged with battery and is accused of repeatedly using homophobic slurs while hitting multiple people at a New Orleans bar during Mardi Gras. That's according to a police report obtained Thursday by The Associated Press via a public records request. A local entertainer who police identified in the report says LaBeouf physically attacked him early Tuesday morning and called him homophobic slurs. Jeffrey Damnit says he believes he was targeted because he was wearing lipstick and eye makeup. LaBeouf was released without bond Tuesday by a New Orleans district judge. He has been charged with two counts of simple battery.
A New Orleans judge has ordered actor Shia LaBeouf to return to drug and alcohol rehabilitation and set a $100,000 bond after the film star was charged with two counts of battery. The film star appeared in court Thursday after his arrest this month over an alleged assault outside a bar during Mardi Gras. Orleans Parish Criminal Court Judge Simone Levine also admonished the actor for allegedly yelling homophobic slurs while hitting multiple people at a bar near the French Quarter. LaBeouf posted bond and left the courthouse without commenting to reporters.
