Electrical problem
2000 Pontiac Grand Am 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

key would not turn all the way off or out of the vehicle so we unhooked the battery and pulled the key out so my first question is what do you think could be wrong and my second is what kind of damage could I have caused from pulling my key out of the ignition when it was not in the off position

The ign. Lock is most likely damaged (tumbler keys).

I would disconnect it from car and take it to a locksmith, or call a locksmith and have it repaired or replaced on site.
