NEW YORK — Police in Washington state say “Cobra Kai” star Martin Kove bit the arm of co-star Alicia Hannah-Kim during a VIP meet-and-greet at a fan convention over the weekend.

Brooklyn-born Kove — who reprised his “Karate Kid” role of villain John Kreese in the Netflix series — was asked to leave Summer Con on Sunday after Hannah-Kim, 42, said hello and he responded by biting her arm “so hard he nearly drew blood,” according to a report from the Puyallup Police Department obtained by Variety.

Kove then allegedly kissed the bite mark, after which Hannah-Kim and her husband confronted the 78-year-old “Rambo” actor, who police say “exploded on them” for doing so.

When the couple sought the help of an officer at the convention to diffuse the situation, Kove claimed he was only trying to be “funny,” saying he and Hannah-Kim “play fight all the time on the set of ‘Cobra Kai.'”

Hannah-Kim — who played sensei Kim Da-Eun on seasons 5 and 6 of “Cobra Kai” — said she wanted to file a police report “in case this continues,” but did not intend to press charges.

Both Kove and Hannah-Kim have shared content from the event, which included the VIP meet-and-greet, but do not appear to have publicly remarked on the alleged assault.

Representatives for Kove and Hannah-Kim did not immediately respond to the Daily News’ request for comment.
