The 21-year-old actor was scheduled to appear at a Los Angeles court yesterday (18.03.08) on charges of unlawful smoking in California’s Burbank on February 18, but neither he nor his attorney were present.
Following his no-show, a USD1,000 bench warrant was issued for Shia’s arrest. The Transformers star – who can soon be seen starring alongside Harrison Ford in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull – was also arrested in November for reportedly refusing to leave a Chicago pharmacy.
Speaking about the November incident, for which trespassing charges were eventually dropped, Shia said: “That was complete and utter insanity. I was a nincompoop, and it was a mistake I’m still completely embarrassed about.
“I was in the middle of a strange mind state. I can’t diminish what happened at all. But I can say this – I’m not the first 21-year-old to be arrested for a misdemeanour. There are lessons in life I need to learn, and I’m learning all of them in front of the public.”
