Exclamation Key wont turn. Brake Pedal to the floor. Stuck in a parking lot !!

So as the title says, Im struck in a parking lot
its a 2003 Impala.
I put the key in ignition and the key wont turn at all. not even to electronics position. and car obviously would not start.
Sifter is stuck parking position (Automatic)
Brake pedal is stuck to the floor.
Sealing lights come on.

Has anybody had similar issues like this? Battery is working fine. Could it be a fuse? Im pretty sure its something electrical

Turn the key only with your hand. Using a tool to force it could break the key or the ignition switch. If none of this works, then your vehicle needs service.

I encourage you to have the vehicle inspected by a certified technician.
