Jason MomoaLOS ANGELES (AP) - Authorities have charged a man with assault for allegedly striking "Stargate Atlantis" actor Jason Momoa in the face with a beer glass, causing wounds that required 140 stitches.

Los Angeles County prosecutors on Friday announced a felony assault with a deadly weapon charge had been filed against 21-year-old Dominic Bando. He's accused of attacking Momoa at a Hollywood restaurant Nov. 15.

Jail records show Bando was arrested and released that day by Los Angeles police. Records do not indicate whether he had an attorney.

Prosecutors said in a news release that Momoa required reconstructive surgery to repair his injuries.

Momoa plays Ronon Dex on "Stargate Atlantis" and has a daughter with girlfriend Lisa Bonet.
