A grand jury has indicted a Gorham woman on charges of attempted murder for allegedly stabbing her husband multiple times in the face, back and torso.

Bella Rosa Harris, 26, was arrested March 9 on a charge of aggravated assault. At the time, authorities were not sure her husband would survive.

The couple had moved to town a few months earlier, police said. Harris is listed as 5-foot-9 and weighing 120 pounds.

Her husband was hospitalized for multiple stab wounds, but did recover.

The grand jury rose today and indicted Harris on a charge of attempted murder in addition to aggravated assault and assault.

Harris is being held on $100,000 bail at Cumberland County Jail.
