Open the hood and see if your serpentine belt has broken. If belt looks good, take a volt meter and test your battery. Your alternator may have quit causing your battery to go completely dead. I would also have you check your timing belt, but from your description you stated that you turned the car off yourself. If the timing belt breaks, the car just instantly dies.
