A New Orleans judge has ordered Shia LaBeouf to return to drug and alcohol rehabilitation and set a 100,000-dollar (£74,000) bond after the film star was charged with two counts of battery over an alleged assault outside a bar during Mardi Gras.

LaBeouf, who appeared in court wearing a fleece jacket and jeans tucked into cowboy boots, was also admonished by the judge for allegedly yelling homophobic slurs while hitting multiple people near the French Quarter. The police report said LaBeouf dislocated one victim’s nose.
