Shia LaBeouf Bar Fight

Julie Wimmer
Shia LaBeouf was recently all over the news. We sure hope he isn't becoming violent like some of the roles he plays. The "Transformers" star was in a brawl at a bar, and his friends and fans hope he gets the help he needs.

LaBeouf is filming "The Company You Keep" with Robert Redford in Canada where this incident took place. According to friends that were with LaBeouf at the bar, an unidentified, drunk, male patron was egging LaBeouf on. LaBeouf, who should have ignored the drunk man, followed him outside where the brawl ensued. The drunk man began beating LaBeouf up until his friends came out and broke the fight up.

Friends say that when LaBeouf drinks, he himself can get very nasty and violent, and that even when not drinking, LaBeouf has a pretty big temper.

In the summer of 2008, LaBeouf flipped the truck he was driving in Los Angeles, CA and broke his hand badly in a drunk driving incident. His license was suspended for a year and he was charged with a misdemeanor. This past February, LaBeouf got into an altercation with a patron at bar in Sherman Oaks, California where he took a punch to the face. This unfortunately, seems like an awful pattern.

LaBeouf seemed to be that new, fresh actor on the movie star express, but booze will stop that train in its tracks if he does not get the help he needs. Maybe "Transformers" should be the title of his new life so he can transform himself out of becoming a true alcholic.

    Surprised that Robert Redford is doing a film with a hot head like him.

    Hmm. Hopefully he gets it together before he ends up like Lindsay Lohan.
