As we previously reported Shia LaBeouf collided with another vehicle as he attempted to make a left hand turn in Hollywood in the early hours of Sunday morning. The truck LaBeouf and his female passenger Australian actress Isabel Lucas were driving in flipped over. While Shia had been drinking before he got in the car which was dead wrong reports have gone a bit too far in crucifying him.
For one thing police reportedly have determined that the other driver in Shia’s car crash ran a red light, and that person is responsible for the crash!
For another Shia by accounts was a standup guy and took responsibility at the crash scene. Access Hollywood reports that a witness at the scene of the crash told the actor to flee!
A guy named Brian Perrulli, came across the accident, pulled over to try and help out.
Perrulli said he overheard a man, who had been in the vehicle LaBeouf hit, telling the actor to flee the accident scene.
“Shia was tending to the other people in the car, signing over information, like insurance and stuff and basically, I overheard the guy tell him, ‘You should just get out of here and go,’ and Shia said, ‘Nah man. I gotta deal with this. My license plate, it’s my car. I don’t wanna go, I gotta deal with this.’”
Perrulli claims he heard the man from the other vehicle, who has not yet been identified, say he would cover for the star.
“The guy Shia hit told him, ‘You should get outta here,’ and ‘I never saw you.’ He said, ‘I never saw you,’ and Shia said, ‘No, man, I gotta stay here and deal with this. It’s my problem,” Perrulli said.
Perrulli went on to say Shia did not seem intoxicated, “He looked more disoriented and shocked more than drunk. I wouldn’t have thought he was drunk.”
So yes Shia has had his problems with the law and done some dumb things, but the ‘LaDouche’ nickname in my opinion doesn’t fit.
