Transformers star Shia LaBeouf is recovering from extensive hand surgery after being involved in a car crash over the weekend, reports People.com.

LaBeouf was involved in an accident early Sunday morning after trying to make a left turn and colliding with another vehicle, causing his truck to roll. His female passenger and the driver of the other vehicle were not seriously injured. LaBeouf, however, sustained minor knee and head injuries and had to undergo surgery to his left hand. He plans to return to the set of 'Transformers 2' within a month's time, according to his spokesperson.

This isn't the first time the Kingdom of the Crystal Skulls star has made headlines for being on the wrong side of the law. Last November, the 22-year-old was arrested at a Walgreens in Chicago after refusing to leave and appearing intoxicated. He later expressed regret over the incident and the charges were dropped. In February, he was given a ticket for illegal smoking.

LaBeouf has been charged with a misdemeanor DUI and subsequently released.
