Shia LaBeouf is once again drawing attention for his behavior in public, this time during a tense moment captured in Rome.

A video circulating online shows the actor sitting outside a restaurant with a woman, growing increasingly animated. What begins as him just talking, albeit vehemently, quickly escalates, with LaBeouf visibly frustrated before shouting “Fuck off” in her direction.

Despite the outburst, the woman remains calm in the footage, showing little reaction.

In a separate clip from the same outing, LaBeouf is seen pacing near a crosswalk, raising his voice again while gesturing emphatically. It’s unclear from the video whether he was addressing the same woman.

The incident adds to a string of recent public moments involving the actor. In the past few weeks, LaBeouf was arrested in New Orleans on a battery charge tied to an altercation, though he was later permitted to travel overseas. During his time in Italy, he also drew attention after being spotted in a hotel lobby wearing only his underwear while asking for a light.

Following his return to the U.S., another video surfaced showing LaBeouf in a heated exchange with police, which ended with the actor visibly emotional.

While the exact context of the exchange remains unclear, the moment quickly spread online, adding another layer to the ongoing conversation around LaBeouf’s recent public appearances.
