Hours before being arrested outside Studio 54 Theatre, Shia LaBeouf started arguing with a homeless guy about either a hat or a McDonald’s bag. TMZ says Shia was trying to get a hat he thought was his back. However, Page Six says Shia wanted the bag of McDonald’s the guy was holding.
Witnesses say, “He really wanted whatever was in that bag. He had so much focus… If there were French fries in the bag, maybe he really wanted to eat them.” The witness added, “He was dodging people and yelling, ‘Yo, come on!’ He was on a mission. It was so bizarre.” They went on, “At first I thought the bum had stolen something from [Shia]. But the bum was responding in almost a joking manner.” Said the witnesses girlfriend, “It was like they were playing tag!”
To be fair, McDonald’s makes the best french fries ever. I mean, who hasn’t chased around a homeless guy for their McDonald’s fries before? Don’t pretend like you haven’t.
Earlier in the day, Shia made a new friend and posed for his Instagram.
