Actor Shia LaBeouf has pleaded guilty to misdemeanor battery charges stemming from an incident in New Orleans in February. Prosecutors filed formal charges against LaBeouf four months after his arrest for allegedly striking three men at a bar. The district attorney's office opted not to pursue hate-crime charges. Following his plea in criminal district court, LaBeouf received a sentence of two years' probation. His sentence also includes requirements for alcohol abuse rehabilitation, sensitivity training, and anger management. This development marks a legal resolution for the "Transformers" franchise star concerning the bar altercation.
