THAT ESCALATED QUICKLY

Actress Thora Birch got into a crazy, prolonged war of words with an autograph hound who got a little too aggressive for her husband Michael Benton Adler's liking ... and the wild altercation was all caught on video.

Check out the vid Kylie shared Monday -- a makeup-free Kylie looking more than a little nervous as she debated plunging her face into a bowl packed to the brim with ice ... even pausing to awkwardly adjust her mouth around a breathing tube before committing.

Kylie’s friend kept hyping her up to just do it -- and after a few weak face dips, she finally went for the full dunk ... probably for the best, since the ice is meant to knock down puffiness, inflammation, and tighten pores.

Moments later, something draws the attention of nearby bystanders, who turn towards Freeman's direction as what appears to be the alleged shouting match with the New Prairie assistant coach Chris Fleeger.

Notre Dame football head coach Marcus Freeman will not be charged with a crime after an altercation at his son's high school wrestling match earlier this month.

The alleged incident occurred on Jan. 3 at Mishawaka High School in Indiana, when Freeman -- head coach of the Fighting Irish since 2021 -- was there to watch his son, Penn H.S. senior Vinny, in the Al Smith Wrestling Invitational.

When Vinny lost a match, New Prairie assistant coach Chris Fleeger allegedly got into a verbal altercation with Vinny, Freeman, and Vinny's coach, Brad Harper.
