Los Angeles Sheriff’s spokesman Steve Whitmore said Shia LaBeouf was not at fault for the crash on Sunday:

"Detectives have determined that the other driver in Shia’s bust-up Sunday morning ran a red light, and that person is responsible for the crash, not LaBeouf. "He was not at fault."

Shia got lucky. Cops did not do a Breathalyzer on Shia at the scene of the accident, but said he appeared intoxicated. If blood wasn’t taken at the hospital to determine Shia’s alcohol level, his attorney could argue Shia was stunned by the roll-over accident, and that’s why he “appeared intoxicated.” LUCKY!

Isabel Lucas was the girl who was in the truck on Sunday at about 3 am when Shia LaBeouf got into an accident after drinking too much. Lucas was back on the Transformers 2 set today after suffering only minor injuries from the accident. Shia had to undergo extensive left hand surgery, but his mother says he is doing fine.

Lucas has been dating Adrian Grenier, from Entourage, for months. A source said:

"She was in the car….They’re friends. The two have been working a lot of late nights on the set and most likely were together to let off some professional steam."

Uh huh, riiiight. Blow off some steam at 3 am on their way back to Shia’s place. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure this one out.

Shia told Details magazine’s September issue that he and his dad used to drink and smoke together. Shia said:

"We would drink together and smoke together, and it’s just a bad deal. It’s not something that is conducive to being a role model—no iconic actors that I know of have problems like that. And I don’t know how to do it like a gentleman. I don’t know how to have one drink."

Shia’s biggest problem is impulse control. If he wants to smoke he does, if he wants to drink he does, if he wants to go out with someone else’s girlfriend he does. Shia loves trouble, but his career won’t last long if he doesn’t kick that habit.

Transformers 2 filming has been put on hold while everyone waits for Shia LaBeouf to recover from the injury to his left hand, which required extensive surgery today. It’s a good thing Shia is insured for this type of thing, but that insurance is about to get more expensive with DUI charges pending.

Shia’s publicist released the following statement regarding Shia’s DUI arrest, hospitalization, and surgery:

"Attorneys for Mr. LaBeouf confirm that an automobile accident involving an additional party occurred early morning in Los Angeles on July 27, 2008. Shia is currently recovering from extensive hand surgery with plans to return to work on the set of Transformers 2 within one month. No further comment will be issued at this time."

Lindsay Lohan cannot find work on big films anymore, because her insurance is too expensive after her DUI’s, and other rehab related problems. Shia had better get some help now before he ends up in the same position as Lindsay. Shia is his own worst enemy.

Shia LaBeouf was arrested for DUI around 2:30 am this morning in Los Angeles. Shia made an illegal left turn with his Ford F-150 pickup in front of an oncoming car, and the two car collided, causing Shia’s pickup to roll. Officers who responded said Shia showed obvious signs of being drunk.

The woman in Shia’s car, and the woman driver of the other car, were both treated at the hospital and released with bumps and bruises. Shia hurt his left hand so badly he had to be taken to surgery this morning, so he remains at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

Since Shia was the only person seriously hurt police decided to charge his with only a misdemeanor DUI rather than a felony DUI.

So far drinking has caused Shia to make an embarrassing video where his friend punched him in the face at his request, and to get arrested at a Walgreens in chicago. The mug shot above is from the Walgreens arrest. Shia was also fined for smoking in a no smoking area by police. It looks like he needs some help kicking his legal addictions before he gets into much more serious trouble.

Shia LaBeouf was busted for smoking where he shouldn’t be again. This time he lit up in the bathroom of the Washington, D.C. Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum, where no smoking is allowed. Shia set off a smoke detector in the bathroom, and was given a good talking to by security, and informed he would be banned if he did it again.

Shia was filming a scene there for Transformers 2. His smoking addiction could be a liability for his career. Get help. Quit smoking. I hear Chantix works really well, and insurance will pay for it.
