Thats kind of weired, I would say look at the fuses. I mean see if it could be the ratiatior? I mean I would need some more details.

Did you hear any kind of sound when it did this? Was there any smoke?

lol trying to help the best I can.

Just need to know what kind of conditions it is in.

Look under the car look for leaks, check the fuses. And just keep looking for something out of place. Check the belts also...

Thats just what I would do in the first place.

I would say that you have a broken belt. This belt runs the alternator and water pump. Replace both belts, don't reuse old ones.
