Shia LaBeouf was attacked outside a Vancouver bar on Monday night.
Sources on the scene claim that LaBeouf and an unidentified man got into an argument at the Cinema Public House and were both asked to leave by the bar's security.
A photographer captured the unnamed shirtless man strike LaBeouf on the face several times as they were being ejected, reports TMZ.
Several passers-by intervened to pull the man off LaBeouf, with the attacker eventually running off.
The actor appeared visibly agitated as he was pulled to his feet. An apparent friend repeatedly advised him not to go after his attacker, saying: "You gotta lay low right now!"
LaBeouf was apparently able to walk away several minutes later after being consoled by his associates.
