Was this in mid-operation - eg you pressed the shutter and the shutter stuck open? OR was it at beginning or end of the film roll?
Remove the "fresh" batteries. Let the camera sit for about 10-15 minutes.
If you have a voltmeter, check their voltage - they should be around 1.5V. Some batteries have higher voltages and can cause issues - e.g. don't use Lithium batteries. Try another set of batteries, perhaps some that aren't fresh.
Have you removed the lens and.or film pack (yes, you will loose the pictures unless you do it in a dark bag)?
Were you doing anything unusual like multiple exposure?
