'Cobra Kai' actress Alicia Hannah-Kim complained to police that Martin Kove, who's played John Kreese since the very first 'Karate Kid' movie, bit her.

TL;DR:
At Washington State Summer Con, Cobra Kai villain Martin Kove allegedly grabbed and bit costar Alicia Hannah-Kim’s arm when she stopped to say hello, leaving visible bruises and nearly drawing blood. Kove told police he was just “messing around” like they do on set, apologized afterward, and was promptly escorted out—Hannah-Kim filed a report for the record but opted not to press charges.
Why it matters:
Kove’s character John Kreese is infamous for his nastiness in The Karate Kid universe, and this off-screen bite certainly lived up to that reputation—though the real-life fallout seems to have ended with bruised egos rather than court dates.
