CHICAGO -- Actor Shia LaBeouf was arrested in downtown Chicago early Sunday after allegedly refusing to leave a Walgreens.

LaBeouf, 21, who came to fame on the Disney Channel's "Even Stevens" and recently starred in box-office hits "Disturbia" and "Transformers," was arrested about 2:25 a.m. at the store at 757 N. Michigan Ave., Chicago police spokesman Marcel Bright said.

A security guard summoned police after LaBeouf -- who stars in the upcoming Indiana Jones sequel -- refused several commands to leave the store, Bright said.

The guard signed a complaint against the actor, who was cited on a misdemeanor count of trespassing.

LaBeouf was taken to the Near North police district and posted bail about 7 a.m., Bright said.

His court date is Nov. 28.

Gotta love this story... getting arrested in a Walgreens? How sterotypically white trash is that!

 

[Suburban Snob]

WTF? Why would they want him to leave? Was he stealing anything? It sound so odd!

 

[KhaoticKharma]

It doesn't go into detail in the article, but from what I understand he was "intoxicated" and disturbing some of the customers...

 

[TheGlassAngel]

Oh Shia....

 

[Ce'nedra]

He's a great actor though! HAhahaha!

 

[justlooking]

what's a walgreens ?

 

[novella]

^ It's a drugstore chain in the U.S.

What a random arrest! (I frequent that Walgreens on the way to work to boot! ) I'm looking forward to hearing more details.

OMG...stupid thing to get arrested for....geez...this seems a bit rediculous...

 

[Spike413]

Oh good, another young celeb on their way to an E! True Hollywood Story....lord knows there's been a shortage

My thinking is, if you're gonna get arrested and screw up your career potential, at least make sure it's for something good...

 

[miwa]

Oh no, Shia...

 

[IncurableLunatic]

i want the mugshot

 

[Gypsy_Doll]

aww and he's kinda cute...

 

[LUXXX]

The only reason this is doubly-annoying is because all summer when he was having his success he kept saying how he wouldn't act stupid and blah blah blah...it didn't take long. All those Disney kids go down in flames eventually...LOL

 

[KhaoticKharma]

Thing is, I don't really view this as on the same level as Lindsay Lohan or Britney Spears- he wasn't arrested with a DUI or caught with a kilo. Tresspassing is one of the most misdemeanor crimes of them all, and I know pleanty of teenagers who have done worse things than trespassing. That said, this isn't his first altercation with the police (they had to go to his house when a neighbor reported his fight with a man who called his mother a name). I get the feeling we have another Sean Penn on our hands- a talented, albeit hot headed young actor.

'Transformers' star LaBeouf arrested at Downtown Walgreens

Shia LaBeouf was charged with misdemeanor criminal trespassing after the "Transformers" star refused to leave a Walgreens in Downtown Chicago, police said Sunday.

A security guard told LaBeouf that he needed to leave the Walgreens at 757 N. Michigan Ave. because he appeared to be drunk, police said.

When LaBeouf, 21, refused to leave, the security guard detained him and called police about 2:30 a.m., according to police spokeswoman Laura Kubiak.

After he was arrested, he was taken to the Near North police district. Police noted that LaBeouf was "very courteous and polite," Kubiak said. Police said he posted bond before 7 a.m., but Kubiak did not know the amount. LaBeouf, of Glendale, Calif., is scheduled to appear in Cook County court Nov. 28.

Police did not administer a sobriety test because LaBeouf was not driving a vehicle, Kubiak said.

Publicists for LaBeouf did not immediately return calls for comment.

The actor is set to co-star with Harrison Ford in "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull," due in theaters next year.

^ I don't know why but the police spokeswoman quotes make me

 

[LUXXX]

Going by that picture...I agree with LaineyGossip...I doubt he was just drunk...his pupils are something serious...LOL

It's a shame...he fell into that lifestyle fast. I guess it is hard to resist.

 

[misssakura]

He looks so adorable though.

 

[IncurableLunatic]

i'm quite disappointed. it looks like a usual candid....except for the eyes which is a bit
