Shia LaBeouf recently made a brief statement following his arrest in New Orleans. The actor was taken into custody after an alleged physical altercation, where he was accused of causing a disturbance and becoming aggressive. LaBeouf was charged with two counts of simple battery and received treatment for injuries at a local hospital. He later posted a message on social media saying, "Free me."
LaBeouf, known for his roles in the Transformers and Indiana Jones franchises, was released on his own recognizance and is scheduled to appear in court next month.
