Dude your battery is dead. Simple as that. Manually open the door, pop your hood, and put a charger on it and everything will work again.

As to what killed it, check if any lights were left on and then check your tail light install to start.

Here's a video:

Hahaha I know what you mean, I'd rather jump the car or charge my battery than doing this in my parking structure

I havent really looked in manual. maybe main terminal fuse?
it's all depends on car manufactuers, they stated differently.
if that fuse blows, all electrical will not have power at all. car won't crank, no lights, etc.

if this happened suddenly, i highly doubt that battery is not drained.
either way, wont harm to test
