Why did my car stop?

So recently I was driving and when I got around a corner my front passenger-side brake felt like it was engaged and took me to a stop. I had to get the car towed, and it is unable to be pushed in neutral as well as driven in reverse or drive. Not sure what's wrong or what I should do to it as it's all-wheel drive as well.

Hi Grady,

That sound like a binding brake calliper to us, but as you also mentioned the all-wheel-drive system there could also be something up with the differential up front. Only thing to do is get a good mechanic to have a look at it.
