Doctors have told Shia LaBeouf they may have to amputate one of his injured fingers, Star has learned exclusively.
The young star, now working on Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is likely to lose the pinky on his left hand, a source on the movie set says.

“Shia called producers yesterday and told them,” the source on the set in Alamogordo, N.M. says. “It’s really thrown the movie into turmoil.”

Shia, 21, mangled his hand when his SUV rolled over twice in a July 27 accident in West Hollywood. He was cited for DUI although cops say they do not believe the accident was his fault.

A request for comment from Shia’s rep was not answered at press time.

Shia LaBeouf will check into rehab to help his chances of beating a drink driving conviction, according to reports.

The 22-year-old star suffered serious hand injuries and was charged with driving under the influence after a serious car crash in Hollywood on July 27th.

Investigators have ruled the other driver caused the accident by running a red light, but LaBeouf is still facing a stiff sentence for drunk driving when he appears in court later this month – and he’s prepared to do anything to help his cause, reports the New York Post.

The newspaper claims LaBeouf is readying himself for rehab because “judges like to see it (rehab)”.

A spokesperson for the actor – who checked out of hospital on Saturday – declined to comment on the allegations, adding: “Right now, we’re focusing on Shia’s hand.”

Shia LaBeouf has a chance of never recovering from the injuries he sustained in a car crash, according to his attorney.

The actor was admitted to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center last week after his truck flipped across a road and collided with another vehicle in Hollywood.

He was charged with driving under the influence and suffered serious hand injuries in the smash, which have disrupted shooting on his new movie Transformers 2.

The 22-year-old’s attorney Michael Norris reveals LaBeouf’s hand is “crushed” and runs the risk of infection.

Norris tells People.com, “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.”

Transformers director Michael Bay is confident actor Shia LaBeouf will be cleared of his drink driving charge following his car crash last weekend.

The 22-year-old was arrested and charged with DUI after his truck flipped across a road and collided with another vehicle in Hollywood on Sunday.

LaBeouf suffered serious injuries to his hand and is facing misdemeanour drink driving charges, but investigators have ruled the other driver caused the accident by running a red light.

However, Bay is adamant LaBeouf was not over the limit when he was arrested, because so much time had passed between the actor consuming alcohol and being involved in the crash.

In an interview with Access Hollywood, due to be aired on Friday, Bay says, “He was not drunk. He was drinking hours and hours before.”

And the filmmaker has further defended LaBeouf, insisting he has shown a lot of growth since they worked on the first Transformers movie, which was released in 2007.

He adds: “The kid really has his head together. He’s doing a great job on this movie. He’s really matured since the last one and I love working with him.”

Shia LaBeouf’s car crash is causing chaos on the set of his new movie Transformers 2, according to reports.

The actor was arrested and charged with driving under the influence after his truck flipped across a road and collided with another vehicle in Hollywood on Sunday.

He injured his hand in the smash and was treated at Los Angeles’ Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. His publicist insists he will be back on the movie’s set within a month.

While Transformers 2 insiders insist LaBeouf’s injury hasn’t disrupted shooting, separate sources tell industry publication Daily Variety at least two days of filming have been lost. Scenes have also had to be rescheduled to accommodate the star’s absence.

Director Michael Bay has refused to comment.

A person on eBay who lives close to the scene where Shia LaBeouf flipped his truck, is selling the broken glass and remains from the accident.

Right now, the bidding is up to $510.00.

From the auction:

I just happen to live a few blocks from the crash site and collected some leftover souvenirs… broken glass and some plastic pieces from Shia’s truck. (some of the pieces can be from the car he hit but his truck flipped and definitely suffered more damage) The debris was collected afterwards and was in the public domain on the street. a.k.a. it’s legal.

The pictures show where the accident happened. You can see the debris scattered on the street in the middle of the road.

Get this piece of history before he spends 2 hours in jail and learns a lesson he will quickly forget.

What’s next?

Update: The auction has been relisted here.

Shia LaBeouf has been urged to install an anti-drunk driving device in his car, following his DUI arrest at the weekend.

The 22-year-old Transformers star was charged with driving under the influence after his truck collided with another vehicle and flipped across a road in Hollywood on Sunday.

He is due in court next month to face a misdemeanor DUI charge – but Mothers Against Drunk Driving (M.A.D.D.) are already calling on the actor to agree to fit ignition interlock devices in all his vehicles.

The contraption prevents a car from starting until the driver has passed a sobriety breath test.

A M.A.D.D. spokesperson says, “We hope Mr. LaBeouf will voluntarily use the opportunity of his DUI arrest to educate his fans – and the country – about this life-saving device by installing the device on his vehicles.”

Four states – Washington, Nebraska, Alaska and Colorado – currently force convicted drink drivers to install the devices in their vehicles.
