Jason Momoa, who plays Ronon Dex on Stargate Atlantis, was attacked on 15 November in Hollywood, requiring 140 facial sutures during reconstructive surgery.

An argument reportedly broke out between Momoa, 29, and a 21-year-old Venice resident named Dominic Bando, in a café on Franklin Avenue. Momoa was allegedly struck with a beer glass during the resulting altercation, according to the Los Angeles Country District Attorney’s office. Bando was arrested and released on $300,000 bail, and is due to be arraigned on 10 December. He was previously on probation for a conviction in March of carrying a loaded firearm.

Momoa, who has played the character on Atlantis since the first season, is also known for a three-season role in Baywatch.
