Security shutdown....won't start!

I'm up and running again and this has probably been posted here before, but it happened to ME this time!! Stopped at a job site to pick up a check and when I went back to my truck it started, ran for 2 seconds and died. Key off, I waited, and then started it again.....ran for 2 seconds and died. Key off, I waited, and then tried to start again and it would just crank but not start. Called 800 number and they said they couldn't get anyone to come tow in my area!!! I called a local guy I know and had it towed to dealer who said that my truck "thought" it was trying to be stolen because the key was not recognized as the correct key!! WTF??? They asked me if I carried another Dodge key in my pocket, because apparently our key to our truck can pick up a code from another Dodge key and cause the security feature to kick in. I did not know the truck would even do this!!! And, I DO NOT have any other keys that have security codes or any Dodge keys at all. THEN they tell me it could have been just a glitch!! Some glitch when they can't come tow you in!!!!!!!!!
