Run out of gas? jk, but you need more information. Any CEL lights, warnings, were you able to restart? The more info you have the better everyone will be able to offer advice.

Sup man, can you be more specific? may want to see if you need to replace the fuel filter or check your gauges see if anything is ab normal.

The engine light is on. That came on about 5 minutes before it shut off.

Take it to an Autozone or similar parts store and have them pull the codes for you. That will give you a direction of what to look at.
