I Can't Shut The Darn Thing Off, Starter Still Spinning

I have had the following problem and am looking for some help. The truck was started and the starter would not disengage. I also could not turn the truck off. I removed all of the relays from the power distribution center and it just kept running with the starter engaged(the key was out of the ignition). To stop the motor I pulled the fuel shutdown relay after the engine stopped running the starter spun for about 3-5 seconds. Since then I have not had any problems. Any ideas on what could have happened would be appreciated.
