Shellie Zimmerman called the Lake Mary, Fla., police claiming that her husband, George Zimmerman,  assaulted her father and was threatening them with a firearm.

Below is a transcript of the 911 call:

911 Operator: 911 do you need police, fire or medical?

We do have units en route to you ma’am. Is he still there?

Shellie Zimmerman: Yes he is and he is trying to shut the garage door on me.

PD: Is he inside now?

Shellie Zimmerman: No, he is in his car and he continually has his hand on his gun and he keeps saying step closer and he is just threatening all of us.

911 Operator:Step closer and what?

Shellie Zimmerman:And he is doing to shoot us.

911 Operator:OK.

Shellie Zimmerman:He punched my dad on the nose. My dad has a mark on his face. I saw his glasses were on the floor. He accosted my father and then took my iPad out of my hand and smashed it and cut it with a pocket knife. There is a Lake Mary city worker across the street that I believe saw almost all of it. He is sitting in his truck right now. He just showed up here but my phone died so I had to call from my father’s phone. I’m really, really afraid.

911 Operator:We have units in the area where you are at so just stay on the line with me.

Shellie Zimmerman: I don’t know what he is capable of. I’m just really scared.

911 Operator:There are multiple units in the area. This is Shellie right? What phone number are you calling on now?… What is Zimmerman doing right now?

Shellie Zimmerman:He is in his truck.

911 Operator:Does he see them?

Shellie Zimmerman:I’m sorry.

911 Operator: Does he see them?

Shellie Zimmerman: They are telling his bodyguard to get out of the way. Oh my God. Dad, get behind the car or something. I don’t know if he is going to start shooting at us or not.

911 Operator:Are you outside right now?

Shellie Zimmerman: Yes we are. The police have there…Dad get inside the house. George might start shooting at us. I don’t know. We are going inside the house. Oh my God

911 Operator:Are you both inside right now?

Shellie Zimmerman:Yup.

911 Operator:Stay in there. Let the police take care of him.

Shellie Zimmerman:He has got his hands in the air. He is not touching his weapon.

911 Operator:Does your father need medical?

Shellie Zimmerman:Dad do you need medical?….He says no, but I think he does need medical. He is shaken. He says he feels like he is going to have a heart attack. His nose. Yes you do because your nose looks like it could be broken. I think he should have a medical. If we could have an ambulance come.

911 Operator:They won’t be able to approach until the situation outside is secured.

Shellie Zimmerman:Oh my God…Oh my God..

911 Operator: You guys are safe inside, correct?

Shellie Zimmerman: Yes.

911 Operator: Shellie, you are doing really good. Ok this is a tough situation for anyone…stay on the line until our units can speak with you.

Shellie Zimmerman: Ok.

911 Operator: Are you OK? You said he did take something out of your hand. Do you need medical as well?

Shellie Zimmerman: I don’t think so. It’s just shock.

911 Operator:Ok. I’m going to get (inaudible) to respond.

Shellie Zimmerman:Dad get inside right now.

911 Operator: Make sure he stays inside until somebody comes and lets you know it’s OK stay in touch.

911 Operator: They can’t come out to check out your father until they secure the scene.

911 Operator: Ok Shellie take a couple deep breaths for me.
