Shia LaBeouf pleaded guilty Wednesday to three counts of simple battery and was sentenced to probation for a Mardi Gras brawl in New Orleans.

He will be required to attend an alcohol treatment program, Laboeuf’s attorney, Sarah Chervinsky, told the AP.

The “Transformers” actor was arrested shortly after midnight on February 17 after being escorted out of a bar in the French Quarter. A video of the altercation showed LaBeouf shoving a person to the ground and hitting a person in the face. A New Orleans police report said the punch to the victim “caused his nose to possibly dislocate.”
