After parking my car, the key goes into the ignition but will not turn and the steering wheel moves slightly but does not turn. I can't unlock the steering wheel to drive the car.

Either the ign. Switch is bad or the park/lock cable.

You will have to remove the steering wheel. If air bag equipped, I would have it done at a deaership or trusted garage.
Improper removal or installation can cause air bag deployment and result in injury.
