‘Cobra Kai' star Alicia Hannah-Kim accuses Martin Kove of assaulting her

Looks like Martin Kove may have taken his character John Kreese’s motto a little too far.

The “Cobra Kai” actor, aged 78, was reportedly expelled from the Washington State fan convention following allegations of assault against his co-star Alicia Hannah-Kim during the weekend.

Hannah-Kim told an officer working the fan event that Kove allegedly bit her arm, and when she yelled out in pain, he “began kissing” the area.

As per an informational police report accessed by People, Hannah-Kim asserted that the alleged incident occurred when she tapped Kove on the shoulder to greet him at their cast booth.

“Martin Kove suddenly grabbed her arm and bit her upper arm so hard it nearly drew blood, and she yelled out in pain,” the documents stated. “After Martin Kove finished biting her arm, he grabbed her arm once more and began kissing it where he had bitten her.”

Hannah-Kim — who starred alongside Kove as Kim Da-Eun for Season 5 and 6 of the Netflix series — claimed her husband, Sebastian Roche, was there and witnessed the alleged attack.

When the pair confronted the actor, he reportedly “exploded on them” while insisting “he did not do anything wrong.”

She found an on-site officer, who noted that she “had a very noticeable bite mark on her arm that was already turning blue and bruising,” per the report.

The law enforcement officer also stated that when he questioned the actor about the incident, Kove “admitted to biting” her but claimed “he did it out of jest.”

“He thought he was being funny, and they play fight all the time on the set of Cobra Kai, and he did not think it was a big deal,” the report stated.

When the officer informed Kove that his alleged assault was illegal and would “not be tolerated in the future,” the actor responded that “he was just messing around” and “did not mean for it to be perceived as illegal.”

Despite the ordeal, Hannah-Kim declined to press charges, but she requested the report to be taken “in case this continues.”

Kove was then “escorted out of Summer Con,” per the report.

The Post reached out to Kove’s reps for comment.

The actor found fame as John Kreese in the 1984 movie “The Karate Kid.” He reprised the role for Parts 2 and 3 of the film franchise.

He joined Netflix’s show “Cobra Kai” in 2018 and starred in the series until showrunners announced it would not be returning after Season 6.
