Overview
- Police reports and video say LaBeouf was involved in a physical altercation at R Bar on February 17 that showed him punching two men and head-butting a third.
- In June he pleaded guilty to misdemeanor battery and was sentenced to two years' probation with required substance-abuse, anger-management and sensitivity training.
- Probation status documents filed on August 19 show he has been checking in with a probation officer, provided proof he will enroll in the ordered programs by next month, declined mental-health treatment and self-reported drinking alcohol daily.
- The court file notes he will not attend the next hearing set for September 23 because he is shooting a movie and warns that failing to complete probation could bring up to six months in jail.
- The new disclosures contrast with LaBeouf's past public claims of extended sobriety and his lawyer's description of the episode as a 'minor Mardi Gras bar tussle,' underscoring scrutiny of his compliance and public narrative.
