Yep. Sounds like over-revved and exploded motor.

yup pull the motor off and the winding will be every where . they dont like to be over revved and it should roll again once the motor is off. if not then the problem is in the transaxle

Lift the rear wheels and check if the wheel is locked due to axle rotating and pulling brakes or motor is locked.

A locked motor will turn the wheel on the other side in the opposite direction and a locked brake will not allow the wheel to turn at all.

It looks that way, as suggested the next step is to remove the motor for inspection.
