Shia LaBeouf was arrested once again in New Orleans just one day after a new warrant for his arrest was issued.

The “Transformers” actor was taken into Orleans Parish county jail on Saturday at 1:48 p.m. local time and booked on a battery charge.

As of Page Six’s reporting, the actor, 39, appears to remain in custody.

A rep for LaBeouf did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment, and a rep for New Orleans Police Department declined to specify where the battery charge stems from.

Shia LaBeouf was arrested again on Saturday, Page Six can confirm. He’s seen here in Los Angeles in January.

As Page Six previously reported, a new warrant for LaBeouf’s arrest was issued by New Orleans Police Department on Friday.

A source told local news outlet WWL Louisiana that the warrant is related to his Feb. 17 Mardi Gras bar brawl arrest.

The insider claimed the case comes from an additional victim involved in LaBeouf’s fight at New Orleans party spot R Bar.

LaBeouf appeared in court on Feb. 26 for his Feb. 17 arrest over the alleged brawl, and was subsequently released on $100,000 bond.

Footage from the altercation showed the “Even Stevens” alum lashing out with gay slurs before head-butting one of the men involved.

Per a police report, authorities alleged the “Transformers” star called the men “f——s” during the fight and continued hurling slurs even after police arrived look into the altercation.

“These f—–s put me in jail,” LaBeouf said, according to the report. “I’m a Catholic.”

The actor was charged with two counts of simple battery, but resumed the revelry almost immediately after being released from custody.

He was subsequently seen mocking his own arrest by stuffing jail paperwork in his mouth and dancing.

LaBeouf was later pictured in photos exclusively obtained by Page Six attempting to go into a church on Ash Wednesday and going for a jog.

On Saturday, LaBeouf defended himself during an interview with Andrew Callaghan’s Channel 5.

“I’ll be honest with you, big gay people are scary to me,” he said in the interview published on YouTube on Saturday.

“When I’m like standing by myself and three gays are next to me, touching my leg, I get scared. I’m sorry. If that’s homophobic, then I’m that. Yeah.”

He also explained that his recollection of the events leading to the arrest “happened one time,” and said “that’s why I, um, got arrested.”

LaBeouf confessed during the interview that he was “wrong for touching anyone. Ever. And that’s the end of my statement on this whole s—t.”

LaBeouf, 39, clarified elsewhere in the interview that he’s “good with gay, [but] be gay over there, though. Don’t be gay in my lap.”

“That’s why. I was drunk and it’s Mardi Gras,” he said. “So, everything I’m saying is nonsense.”

Amid the drama, TMZ reported on Saturday that insiders close to LaBeouf claim he’s not to blame for his split from Mia Goth and that he tried “everything” to save the relationship — though a Goth source claimed an alleged drinking problem came between them.

The pair quietly separated almost a year ago, Page Six previously reported.
