Police have released the 911 call an Atlanta mother made as her two sons allegedly tried to kill her and their father at the family's home, attacking the parents when they thought they were asleep.

Christopher Ervin, 22, and his 17-year-old brother Cameron were taken into custody on Saturday after police found them outside of their Snellville, Georgia home.

Their parents Yvonne and Zachary Ervin, both 50, were immediately taken to the hospital with serious injuries.

The couple's struggle can be heard in Yvonne's dramatic and disturbing 911 call, which she made shortly before 8am last Saturday.

'Please send someone to my house,' she begins, breathing heavily. 'My children are trying to kill me.'

'What do you mean that your children are trying to kill you?' the emergency dispatcher asks.

'They've attacked me and my husband,' Yvonne continues. 'They drugged us with Xanax, they've attacked us and they're trying to kill us.'

'My husband has distracted them and I was able to get to the phone please hurry.'

'They tried to strangle and shoot us, they put Xanax in our food, they thought we were asleep and they tried to attack us, They beat me up, they beat him up, they're trying to kill us.'

'Please please, please hurry,' she continues to repeat. 'Please hurry, please hurry.'

The dispatcher then asks Yvonne where her children and husband are and she reveals that Zachary made it to the garage and was trying to blow the car horn to get their neighbor's attention to the house.

Police released a 911 call made by Yvonne Ervin, who told the dispatcher, 'Please send someone to my house. My children are trying to kill me. They've attacked me and my husband'

Police said they found blood and broken furniture throughout the house (pictured) and also believe the brothers' tampered with the gas line to start a fire

She then tells the dispatcher the names and ages of her sons before revealing her sons are armed.

'They have a shotgun,' she said. 'We have a shotgun and a pistol in the house and I can't find my pistol so I'm assuming they've taken it - and they have his shotgun.'

The dispatcher then asks Yvonne why her sons began their attack.

'I don't know what's going on,' she responded. 'I don't know why they've done this, I really don't, I guess they want the insurance money, I'm not sure.'

She then tells the dispatcher again that she heard her sons say they put Xanax in their drinks and had mentioned it after they began to attack their parents.

'That's why we were so sleepy,' she says. 'We didn't understand why were so sleepy.'

When the dispatcher asked Yvonne why the sons had begun their attack she responded, 'I don't know what's going on, I don't know why they've done this...I guess they want the insurance money, I'm not sure'

Yvonne Ervine told the emergency dispatcher that she and her husband had been 'drugged with Xanax' and that their sons then tried to 'strangle and shoot us' at their Atlanta home (pictured)

Yvonne then tells the dispatcher she's going to try and lock her bedroom door before saying, 'I just heard them say "Where did mom go?", they're headed upstairs now'.

She can then be heard screaming while a voice on the background is heard asking, 'you on the phone?'

Yvonne then tells the dispatcher what sounds like, 'he's dragging me away,' before her line goes silent and the dispatcher just keeps asking, 'Hello? hello?'

Christopher and Cameron Ervin have been charged with two counts each of aggravated assault as well as first-degree arson.

Police said they found blood and broken furniture throughout the house and also believe the brothers' tampered with the gas line to start a fire, according to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Zachary Ervin had been stabbed multiple times and had a severe head injury after he was hit with a shotgun.

Yvonne, who was 'seriously injured', was found lying on her bed by officers. She has since been released from the hospital but Zachary is still being treated.

Cameron Ervin was outside the home when officers arrived at the scene. His brother was found lying face down in a second-floor bathroom.

Neither Cameron nor Christopher are believed to have a previous criminal record and there is no history of domestic calls at their home. They have yet to provide police with a motive.

'Just kill me now,' Cameron allegedly said in a police cruiser, according to WSB-TV.

'I tried to f****** kill my parents. Who does that?'

Zachary Ervin had been stabbed multiple times and had a severe head injury after he was hit with a shotgun. Yvonne, who was 'seriously injured', was found lying on her bed by officers.
