NORTH MIAMI BEACH (CBSMiami) -- A woman accused of  stabbing a piano teacher faced a judge on Thursday.

Sharon Clahar, 41, was arrested on charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

A judge allowed her to be released to Fort Lauderdale Hospital but she will be taken to and from the hospital by Miami-Dade Corrections. She also has an alternate bond of $10,000.

The move comes a day after a woman who witnessed the incident spoke out. 

"I just heard someone screaming hysterically," said the woman.

She said that's when she saw Clahar standing over the victim, her piano teacher, with a large knife stabbing her repeatedly.

"It was repeated and the lady you could see she was struggling....(the victim) was screaming and telling us to help and she was bleeding and call 911 and I was yelling."

According to police, the witness convinced Clahar to stop the assault.

The young woman told Zea that based on what she saw, she believes the charge should be attempted murder.

Police are not identifying the piano teacher, but said she was stabbed several times in the upper arm area and is expected to be okay.
