Crushed!

Filed under: Shia LaBeouf

shia.jpg

Hope he's not left handed!

Shia LaDouche's injury seems to be more severe than we previously thought.

The Transformers star's lawyer says his left hand was "crushed" in last weekend's accident and runs the risk of infection:

"The force of (the) impact immediately flipped Shia's vehicle over, and, as a result, Shia's left hand was crushed. Shia underwent four hours of surgery on Sunday and has been recovering since then. His doctors remain hopeful that he will fully recover, but due to extensive surgery and the nature of the injuries, there remains a substantial risk of both infection and other complications."

That's not all.

We mentioned last week that Shia might not be to blame for the accident.

His lawyer went on to say, "We have also received information that suggests that the other driver may have been traveling upwards of 50 mph, and that said driver may not have been looking forward at the time of the accident."

A sheriff's mouth piece says, "We have strong evidence that the other driver ran a red light. The case is still under investigation."

This is a lesson for everyone: drinking and driving crushes, y'all!

    Making fun of people's clothing is one thing, but your posts have started to become quite vicious and are not necessary. It's almost as if you are secretly hoping for an infection in his hand, and for something bad to happen. He's a kid, he's human, why not try posting something positive, or a wish for his hand to heal. If it weren't for these celebs, you'd have no job. I enjoy some of your postings, but have been wondering about the degree of nastiness you have been reaching lately.

    You're a vicious person. Your jealousy of famous people is very disgusting. I would think that an ex meth addict like yourself would understand that people make mistakes.

    And I don't believe that there have been any test results released to say that he was in fact drunk.

  19. Amand says – reply to this


    19

    What Perez doesn't tell you (typical one sided media bias) is that Shia was NOT drunk. It figures that he leaves out the big details of the story to make someone that is famous look bad.



  20. 20

    Perez, did you actually read what the Sheriff said? You blamed Shia from the start, and no matter what the facts are, you keep going back to it. Personally I would rather listen to the cops who're investigating, not your prejudices. Thank God you didn't become a cop, you'd be railroading people left and right.

    I don't get it… If the other guy caused the accident, wasn't looking, hit shia, and caused his car to flip.. how is shia's drinking still the cause??
    maybe I'll just have to read over the article again.

    It sounds to me as if the docs or his people are trying to say that there is or was a very real possibility he could lose his hand. That's right. Lose it. So he needs to take vitamins, wat right and quit smoking. Smoking gets in the way of healing. I hope he will be OK bcz this is a very hard thing for a young kid to go thru. It might be so bad that he will not be able to use his hand much if at all. I hope he heals properly and doesn't get an infection. The smokinjg will not help him heal, tho. That is a real fact.

    Re: M from TorontoActually, all of the reports from the night of the accident quoted the LA COuntry Sheriff's office as saying that Shia made an illegal left turn (by turning when he had a red light). Perez reported that, as did hundreds of other news organizations and blogs. On Tuesday, the sheriff's office reversed that first finding, stating that the female driver of the other car ran the red light and plowing into Shia's pickup truck. Perez and all of the others DID mention that change in the official story.
    *****
    The thing that annoys me are the many fake posts planeted by Endeavor interns and by Shia's PR people that are aimed at convincing the readers here that, just because the other driver got the ciatation, it somehow means that Shia is inocent of the charges as to drive while under the influence or alcohol, drugs, or both. ONLY THE HOSPITAL TESTS WILL TELL US THAT FOR SURE. From what I can tell, no breathalyzer test was done at the scene because the top priority for the cops is to get the injured person to the hospital - they obviously saw his hand, but there could have also been internal injuries.

    Re: Anon – This is absolutely correct. Smoking blocks oxygen from getting to the hands and feet, and lack of oxygen in the blood cells definitely slows down the healing processm and gives infections the chance to linger and do further damage.

    It's bananas how it was Shia who was drunk, yet it took the other driver to cause the accident.

    Man that sucks for Shia, but at least he was able to walk away from the accident.

    see this is why you don't judge people too quickly, because when the truth comes out you look like a compplete tool. I mean you always look like a complete tool, but this just magnifies it.



  34. 34

    SHIA WAS STILL DRINKING AND DRIVING!!! HE SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT!
    .
    IF HE HAD BEEN SOBER HE MAY HAVE BEEN ABLE TO USE THE JUDGMENT OF A SOBER DRIVER AT 3AM AND REALIZE THAT MOST OF THE OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD AT THAT TIME ARE HAMMERED AND TO USE EXTRA CAUTION.
    .
    HE COULD HAVE DRIVEN DEFENSIVELY AND SEEN THE OTHER CAR ABOUT TO CHARGE A RED LIGHT AND AVOIDED THE ACCIDENT.
    .
    I KNOW WHEN I AM DRIVING THAT LATE AT NIGHT, I TAKE EXTRA CARE TO WATCH OUT FOR DRUNKARDS.
    .
    THAT BEING SAID… NO NEED TO CONTINUE HARSHING ON THE GUY!
    .
    SOUNDS LIKE, SADLY, FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE, EVERYTIME HE GOES TO USE HIS LEFT HAND FOR ANYTHING, HE WILL BE REMINDED OF HIS ACTIONS. WHILE HE IS LUCKY TO BE ALIVE, IT IS SAD THAT HE WILL PROBABLY BE PERMANENTLY INJURED.
    .
    NO ONE DESERVES THAT.

    I hope he gets better soon!!! If it was his fault then hopefully it will be a lesson learned! If it was the other driver's fault then fuck him Shia is a cutie!!!



  36. 36

    OMG what a diva!!! Even being seriously injured or not this guy was DRUNK AND DRIVING!!! He needs to shut it and LAPD needs to do something about his DUI… put him in jail for more than a couple of hours or minutes so he learns….

    Hand Surgery is not funny. You have a lot of bones, tendons, nerve endings in the hand. It is not "as easy" to fix vs say a Femur. I am sure he had the best surgeons, but even that does not ensure full use of his hand again. He will have arthritis in left hand for the rest of his life. So if he is fault or not his left will never be the same. I hope he can recover and learn a valuble life altering lesson.

    38

    seriously perez, i think you MIGHT want to stop focusing on the fact that he supposedly had a few drinks before leaving. there's no blood alcohol tests that confirm if he was in fact drunk, though from the sounds of it he probably only has 2 or 3 drinks and wasn't bad at all. in this case the drinking wasn't the problem, THE OTHER DRIVER WAS JUST A FREAKIN MORON.

  39. Danny says – reply to this


    39

    Perez: "Shia LaDouche's injury seems to be more severe than we previously thought." Perez's quote implies that he actually does investigative reporting. Please!!…..he just waits on other news sources to do all the work and he takes the credit. Just another reason to hate Perez.

    Re: auds – Auds, you are pointing at the problem in this case. As of right now, we are hearing conflicting stories. The bartender at the Troubador says that Shia was "slamming down one whishey shot after another" and that he was "dancing and acting crazy". Problem is, when was this? 9:00 p.m. or 1:30am, just before last call? (Does anyone out there know what time musical acts at the Troubador play their sets)?
    .
    I know that Michael Bay and others say that Shia only had a "few drinks, hours before, and who knows, maybe Shia has a fast metabolism that processes the alcohol quickly, but he still may have been impaired when the other girl drove into him. Even though the girl got the ciatation, Shia still bears the basic responsibility to operate his vehicle in a responsible manner - we all do, in fact. Damn, I wish they'd hurry up with the tests so that we can know what really happened!

    everyone that drinks alcohol has at one point driven intoxicated. If you are the one person who hasn't, please write a book and tell people how righteous and perfect you are. No reports say that he was slammed. Unless you were keeping count, don't judge. Bare in mind when the cops arrived he had just emerged from a vehicle that had flipped. His adrenaline levels would've prevented them from determining how intoxicated he was by his antics. It doesn't take this long to test his blood alcohol level. If they were suspicious at the scene, they took it at the hospital, it would've been out by now. (Unless they want to keep this story out for as long as possible & are holding the info for a dramatic effect). The smell on his breath could've been a lingering smell (it doesn't go away quick). Or whose to say that someone didn't spill a drink on him earlier in the night. You don't know.
    As far as his injuries, it's extensive enough to include nerve damage that was hopefully repaired.
    You guys suck with your blind and speculatory judgement. He's a good guy getting a bad rap because everyone is rooting for him to fail. Won't happen! Wait and see!
    Atleast Transformer's is getting some good publicity from all of this. Get well Shia.

    Re: Shayn – Actually, the intersection of La Brea and Fountain has a camera that would have shown the other driver running the light - the cops probably made an assumption and the camera proved otherwise. This is typical - when a friend was sideswiped on the freeway by a drunk driver, SHE was initially blamed for not being able to stop her car. So you should stop with your equally annoying conspiracy theorizing already.

    seriously perez…..get ur shit together….a lesson for everyone? this has nothing to do with drinking and driving….pretty much not gonna be shia fault plus it is now said that he wasnt drunk….come on perez….ur an idiot get off ur high horse

  51. Mandi says – reply to this


    51

    Re: lalal – EXACTLY. Perez, you need to get off that high horse of yours before it throws you. I'm reserving judgment until an official report comes out on his blood level but it wouldn't have made a difference even if he was a teetotaler- the light changed, he made a LEGAL left and was slammed into by someone who ran the red. Stop trying to make this some kind of "I told you so" platform and go back to worshipping Brangelina's holy offspring.

    Re: Mandi – Mandi, although you're basically right about what happened at the accident scene, you seem to be discounting certain provisions of the California DUI laws, especially as they pertain to the concept of COMPARATIVE NEGLIGENCE (Google it). Briefly, comparative negligence means that even though the female driver of the car received the ticket. Mr. LaBeouf could be found to have partial responsibility for the accident.
    .
    Why is this? *IF* Mr. LaBeouf was under the influence of alcohol or drugs when the accident occurred (and of course, that is a big 'IF"), he could be found to be responsible for a percentage of the blame for the accident. If there is a lawsuit and counter-suit, the court (either judge or jury) will consider all of the factors involved and will work out the division of responsibility.
    .
    Obviously, it will be much better for Mr. LaBeouf if his BAC and drug levels fall below the legal minimums. I'm not taking sides (I have no opinion of Mr. LaBeouf, because I'm not interested in the type of movies he is in). I just refuse to let the obviously fake posters spread their specious lies and manufactured spin.

    where's the real story here? That either Adrian Grenier or Shia is gay giggity gay gay gay. No way any straight man (Adrian) is down with his chick out with another dude at 3am (in WeHo .. mind us all) .. unless said other dude (Shia) is a non-threat to a hot vadge.
    Or potentially conversely, Shia almost blew Adrian's beard, and next day walkies is damage control.

    D & D doesn't CRUSH in this case. Dumb and driving did and Shia was in the wrong place at the wrong time. The idiot driving the other car is what caused the crash. Let the guy off the hook. They have nothing on him except a possible "smell" on his breath. That's no proof and he's got the injury now to boot.
