He’s being held without bond.

Rendon was a martial arts instructor at Potomac Kempo in Kingstowne. On more than one occasion, police said, he took a student home with him “during instructional periods” and sexually assaulted him.

The police found out about the reported assaults Wednesday, after the victim told a parent.
