Someone knowledgeable is going to have to look the truck over to determine what happened. It could have overheated, run out of oil or numerous other possibilities.

so the shop just called and said it started for them...they said they are going to try again in the morning and see if it stalls for them and said it may be the fuel pump

That wouldn't explain the noises you described.
