Shia LaBeouf doesn't care who he offends!

Shia LaBeouf is the latest Hollywood hotbox caught in a maelstrom of legal entanglement. A $1,000 bench warrant was issued for the 21-year-old actor after he and his lawyers failed to appear in court Tuesday on serious charges. Well, sorta serious. He was caught smoking last month and was cited, although the warrant didn’t say where or when the infraction occurred.

But hey, it’s California — if you yell at the begonias you’re growing in your window box you’re likely to get busted for noise pollution, causing mental anguish and abuse of another living creature. We fail to see how this is important, if for no other reason than to show LaBeouf is so squeaky clean, we have to dig up dirt about a smoking infraction to write about him.

UPDATE: Well, his attorney showed up and entered a plea of not guilty to a charge of unlawful smoking, TMZ says. He's not going to take this lying down!
