“Please don’t shoot me” - a young daughter's plea with her mother has been revealed as the heartbreaking 911 tapes are released of a Texas mother shooting dead her two children.

Police in Texas released the frantic 911 calls made by 17-year-old Madison and 22-year-old Taylor Sheats, pleading with their mother Christy Sheats who shot them dead.

It’s reported that Christy Sheats called a family meeting at their home last Friday and shot the two girls in front of their father, Jason.

When police arrived, the 42-year-old mother had already shot her two daughters in the street. After she refused to put down her weapon, police report, an officer shot her dead.

Pleading and screaming can be heard in the background as she begs her mother to “please don’t shoot”.

“Please put down your gun. Please don’t point your gun at us,” Madison can be heard screaming.

A voice in the background can be heard saying “I’m sorry.”

Another person, presumably the girls’ father says “I’ll promise you whatever you want”.

The second call to 911 was made by the older daughter Taylor and the screams and pleading continue.

A third call to the emergency services was from a distressed neighbour who witnessed the shootings as they spilled out onto the street.

The neighbour describes the woman as a “lady with a gun” in a “purple dress”.

“Two people — two ladies lying in the street,” he tells 911.

“There’s a guy trying to help them, but the lady is on top of one of them with the gun in her hand.”

The caller said he witnessed the woman standing over her daughter who was still alive on the street but returned inside to get more bullets and shot her again.

“She’s coming back again and apparently she has bullets now,” the caller says.

“Oooh, she shot her again. She shot her again.”

The caller becomes distracted trying to look after his own family.

Police later discovered that Jason Sheats had managed to run to the end of the street and notify them of what happened.

No motives have been released for the attack.
