Can you tell us what took place prior to getting stuck in first gear?

Where is it sitting now? on a hill, by chance?

Used for just mowing, or are there other attachments ??

Sounds like it is in both first and second gear.. which locks it up.
Need to take a look in the transaxle, to find out what is wrong here. Should have nothing to do with the engine, except being a dead, locked load.
However, maybe other problems involved as well.
Good luck with it.
