The Hollywood star is accused of hitting one man with closed fists and punching another in the nose in the city’s French Quarter
A representative for the Transformers star did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Police arrived at a business on the 1400 block of Royal Street, responding to a reported assault, officials said. The two men alleged they were assaulted by LaBeouf.
The former Even Stevens child star was “causing a disturbance” at the business, prompting staff to remove him from the premises, police said. LaBeouf allegedly struck one of the victims and “used his closed fists on the victim several times”.
Police say LaBeouf left the business but returned “acting even more aggressive”. According to the incident report, an unspecified number of people tried to subdue LaBeouf and eventually let him go “in hope that he would leave”.
