Before his arrest, Shia LaBeouf was caught in some fresh legal trouble!
According to police records obtained by TMZ on Thursday, cops were called to the Even Stevens alum’s New Orleans home a few times before his Mardi Gras arrest earlier this month. And once was after a fight involving his exes!
Per the reports, in early February, cops were called to Shia’s home amid an incident between an unnamed man and his ex-girlfriend.
Cops claim the man told police that he was inside his house on February 8 — just over one week before his arrest on Feb. 17 — at around 11:30 p.m., showing the place to his girlfriend. He then heard a knock at the door and saw his ex-girlfriend entering the home — and running right at them!

The man alleged he told his girlfriend to run away from his ex as he stepped between the women. Apparently, his ex then punched him in the groin area, causing him to “slump over and grimace due to the pain.” Despite the pain, he said he wasn’t injured and refused medical services.
According to the guy, he dated the ex in November but called things off in December. He was asked five risk questions about domestic violence, and he told cops that he was not sure if his ex would seriously injure him or even kill him. He did allege to law enforcement that he knew “she was arrested for stabbing someone” in the past. Yikes. He also alleged she threatens him in “every interaction” they have and claimed things were “getting worse.” An arrest warrant was issued for the ex-girlfriend.
As we’ve been following, Shia was arrested last week after allegedly punching a bar employee and getting into a brawl outside of the bar. He was charged with two counts of simple battery. Soon after that arrest, we learned he had secretly split from his wife Mia Goth about a year earlier, which prompted his move to Louisiana.
Since the arrest, he’s been seen getting cozy with a mystery woman while out and about in NOLA. He has not commented on this legal incident at this time.
