Reuters reports that actor was arrested on charges of disorderly conduct, public drunkenness and obstruction.

According to the Police statement, LaBeouf became unruly after a bystander refused to give him a cigarette.

"When LaBeouf wasn't given a cigarette, he became disorderly, using profanities and vulgar language in front of the women and children present," the statement said.

He was asked to leave the bustling City Market neighbourhood by an officer. The actor refused, became aggressive and ran into a hotel lobby when the officer tried to arrest him.

LaBeouf was eventually arrested on three charges and taken to the Chatham County jail, where he was booked.
