My car stalled and died

Came out from a roundabout and started a small hill climb, engine cut off and all indicators/lamps lit up, just as they do when you turn on ignition but do not crank the engine (when starting).

Restarted it, and managed to back up for about 200m. Died again. Managed to restart it and land in front of my garage. Pushed the car for 1 1/2m so it doesn't block neither neighbour or traffic. I'm off to Sweden now but can deal with this issue tomorrow.

I might have heard some coughing before it stalled. My main suspicion is either out of gas (i thought i'd make it home, lamp had been on for about 70km. or flat battery.

I will pour some gas tomorrow. There was still light, alarm is working. Can the battery still be "daed" ?

When I pushed the car i had to turn the wheel. It locked.

How do I unlock it?

I didn't try too hard but apparently i can't turn the key anymore?! Any clues?
