TL;DR
At a Washington State Summer Con fan event, Cobra Kai’s on-screen villain Martin Kove allegedly grabbed and bit co-star Alicia Hannah-Kim on the arm—drawing blood and leaving bruises—when she tapped him on the shoulder to say hello. A shaken Hannah-Kim filed a police report, and though she chose not to press charges, the incident was documented, and Kove was escorted out of the convention.
Kove later told officers he was “just messing around” because they “play fight” on set, but he admitted it was wrong and apologized. The eye-opening altercation underscores how far off-screen antics can get when real boundaries are crossed—even among longtime castmates.
