Help! Dead Mini...

I went out to eat last night and when I got out of my car and cut it off I noticed as I was walking away that there was a fan still running on my car? My keys are out of the car and it is locked.
-What fan or noise is that running when the motor is not running?

The fan never cut off, stayed on so long it drained my battery...
I then jump start the car and the fan still stays on.... Its just going to keep draining the mini battery..

HELP?!

It's a known issue. The cooling fan won't turn off. It hasn't happened to me (knocking on wood) so I don't know what the fix is for it. Do a search and you should find something.

Same thing happened to my MINI, well it was similar. My power steering pump wouldn't turn off and kept on killing my battery.
