Shia LaBeouf Arrested in New Orleans on Two Simple Assault Counts After Mardi Gras Bar Altercation

Police report paramedic treatment at the scene followed by a hospital transfer prior to booking.

Overview

  • Officers were called around 12:45 a.m. to the Royal Street Inn and Bar in Faubourg Marigny near the French Quarter for reports of escalating aggression.
  • Police and court records state an employee tried to escort LaBeouf out before he allegedly punched one man multiple times, left, returned, and struck another in the nose, after which bystanders restrained him.
  • Paramedics treated LaBeouf at the location, he was taken to a hospital for unspecified injuries, and he was subsequently booked on two counts of simple assault.
  • He remained in custody with a first court appearance scheduled for Tuesday, and neither the actor nor his representatives had issued public comment.
  • Witnesses from multiple venues described intoxicated and confrontational behavior during the Mardi Gras weekend, set against his prior alcohol-related arrests and a civil case with FKA Twigs resolved in 2025.
