Shia LaBeouf is receiving treatment for alcohol addiction. The 28-year-old actor has voluntarily opted to seek professional help for his issues with booze following his arrest in New York City last week.

He understands that these recent actions are a symptom of a larger health problem and he has taken the first of many necessary steps towards recovery.”

Shia LabeoufThe ‘Transformers’ star was charged with harassment, disorderly conduct and criminal trespassing last Thursday after he allegedly began yelling offensive language and slapping people’s bottoms midway through a Broadway performance of ‘Cabaret’ at Studio 54. He was also spotted arguing with a homeless man over a baseball cap on the streets of the city a few hours before his arrest.

Shia is expected to appear in court in relation to his New York charges on July 24. Meanwhile, Shia’s friends and family became increasingly worried about the star earlier this year after he stormed out of a ‘Nymphomaniac’ press conference in Berlin, before arriving on the red carpet for the film’s German premiere wearing a paper bag on his head that read, “I am not famous any more.” -femalefirst
